The acute reduction in peripheral arterial stiffness during reactive hyperemia is assumed to be flow‐mediated; however, the mechanism remains unproven. We hypothesized that restricting the blood flow increase during reactive hyperemia would abolish the ...

Objective: The primary objective was to find an agreement of intraocular pressure (IOP) assessed by Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) and Corvis in healthy, ocular hypertension (OHT) and primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG).

Abstract Purpose To analyse optical coherence tomography (OCT)‐derived inner nuclear layer (INL) and outer retinal complex (ORC) measurements relative to ganglion cell‐inner plexiform layer (GCIPL) measurements in glaucoma. Methods Glaucoma participants (n = 271) were categorised by 10‐2 visual field defect type.

Corneal tissue changes following short‐term soft contact lens wear of different materials
Abstract Purpose To study the effect of different soft contact lens (CL) materials during short‐term wear on corneal tissue. Methods Twenty‐two healthy participants wore both silicone hydrogel (MyDay, CooperVision) and hydrogel soft CLs (Biomedics 1 day extra, CooperVision) for 8 h per lens.

Traditional applanation tonometry techniques lack the necessary accuracy and reliability for measuring the intraocular pressure (IOP), and there is still a need for a reliable technique for in vivo diagnosis.

Macroscopic morphological aspects, ecometry and rebound tonometry of the eye bulb in sloth (Bradypus variegatus) [PDF]
: The field related to the visual system of wild animals is deeply scarce. Settling anatomical and physiological parameters for these animals is still a descriptive vision for Bradypus variegatus (Schinz, 1825).

Future Research Perspective on the Interfacial Physics of Non-Invasive Glaucoma Testing in Pathogen Transmission from the Eyes [PDF]
Non-contact Tonometry (NCT) is a non-invasive ophthalmologic technique to measure intraocular pressure (IOP) using an air puff for routine glaucoma testing. Although IOP measurement using NCT has been perfected over many years, various phenomenological aspects of interfacial physics, fluid structure interaction, waves on corneal surface, and pathogen ...

Aims: This study aimed to examine the intra-observer reliability of three ophthalmologists who measured intraocular pressure (IOP) using the Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) and the inter-observer variability among them during three visits of ...

The leading cause of health loss and deaths worldwide are cardiovascular diseases. A predictor of cardiovascular diseases and events is the arterial stiffness. The pulse wave velocity (PWV) can be used to estimate arterial stiffness non-invasively.

Purpose: A meta-analysis found that including atmospheric pressure as altitude in generalized linear models reveals higher differences between Goldmann tonometry and Pascal dynamic contour tonometry at higher altitudes, with the difference increasing in ...
