No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Diurnal fluctuations of intraocular pressure (IOP) and peripapillary retinal blood flow may have distinctive patterns in medically well-controlled open-angle glaucoma patients. In the results, we found a unique pattern, 'Latent asymmetric IOP', defined as the IOP which differs between the eyes only when placed in the supine position. Unique effects of this latent asymmetric IOP on Visual field and diurnal IOP fluctuations were studied.
