Summary

Our experiments are designed to test the overall hypothesis that position-dependent or water-dependent intra-ocular pressure (IOP) spikes occur in humans, and that these challenge ocular homeostasis.

Conditions

  • Intraocular Pressure

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Postural change

Intraocular pressures, blood pressures, and retinal thicknesses are measured with postural changes

BEHAVIORAL

Water drinking

Intraocular pressures, blood pressures, and retinal thicknesses are measured with water drinking.
