Aqueous Outflow Facility Changes With Posture

NCT00571012 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 20

Last updated 2009-11-26

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Intraocular pressure (IOP) varies with body position, with a significant increase occurring from the seated to the supine position. Previous research has indicated that the IOP increase cannot be explained by changes in episcleral venous pressure(blood flow leading away from the eye) alone. As well, previous research has indicated that aqueous flow rate is independent of body position. The purpose of this project was to determine if aqueous humor outflow facility varied with changes in posture.
