Summary

Objective: To evaluate the variation in intraocular pressure in patients with chronic kidney disease, according to the time interval between hemodialysis sessions and to the influence of weight and blood pressure on intraocular pressure.

Methods: This was a cross-sectional study in which 78 eyes of 39 patients on hemodialysis, at the Santa Casa de Misericordia de Goiânia hospital, were analyzed in June 2014. Patients were divided into groups according to the days on which they underwent hemodialysis. The mean, standard deviation, and median of the intraocular pressure, blood pressure, and weight were calculated. P-values \<0.05 were considered statistically significant.

Kowa HA-2 Perkins applanation tonometer.

Patients were divided into groups according to the days on which they underwent hemodialysis. Intraocular pressure was measured with a Kowa HA-2 Perkins applanation tonometer. The tonometry included three measurements in the central region of the cornea before and after hemodialysis. In all patients, the measurements were performed three times on the days when hemodialysis sessions were performed, with 24 hours between each session, and the means of the measurements were obtained. All parameters were measured under prior corneal anesthesia with 0.1% proparacaine and 0.25% fluorescein eye drops.
