Mass spectrometry in ocular drug research
Abstract Mass spectrometry (MS) has been proven as an excellent tool in ocular drug research allowing analyzes from small samples and low concentrations. This review begins with a short introduction to eye physiology and ocular pharmacokinetics and the relevance of advancing ophthalmic treatments.

Water drinking test: Intraocular pressure changes after tube surgery and trabeculectomy
Purpose: To study the effects of filtration surgeries (tube and trabeculectomy) on changes in intraocular pressure after a water-drinking test. Methods: In this prospective, non-randomized, comparative clinical study, 30 patients who had tube surgery and

The intraocular pressure response to dehydration: a pilot study [PDF]
This study was designed to determine the Intraocular Pressure (IOP) response to differing levels of dehydration. Seven males participated in a 90 minute treadmill walk (5 km/h and 1 % grade) in both a cool (22 °C) and hot (43 °C) climate. At Baseline and

A shell model of eye growth and elasticity [PDF]
The eye grows during childhood to position the retina at the correct distance behind the lens to enable focused vision, a process called emmetropization. Animal studies have demonstrated that this growth process is dependent upon visual stimuli, while genetic and environmental factors that affect the likelihood of developing myopia have also been ...

A Case of Cyclodialysis after Microhook Trabeculotomy Treated with Vitreous Surgery
We report a case of cyclodialysis with decreased visual acuity after microhook trabeculotomy (mTLO) successfully treated by vitreous surgery. A 41-year-old man had been medically treated for primary open-angle glaucoma in both eyes.

Initial experience in self-monitoring of intraocular pressure. [PDF]
Background/aims: Diurnal variation in intraocular pressure (IOP) is a routine assessment in glaucoma management. Providing patients the opportunity to perform self-tonometry might empower them and free hospital resource.
