Summary

A total of 50 patients aged between 18-60 years, classified as American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) I-II, undergoing elective total laparoscopic hysterectomy in the steep trendelenburg position (STP) will be included in the study. Preoperatively, an ophthalmologist will perform an eye examination on the patients, and intraocular pressure will be measured using a non-contact computerized tonometer (Topcon CT-800, Japan). Central corneal thickness and iridocorneal angle will be measured using a topography device (Sirius Topography, CSO, Italy), and the thickness of the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) will be measured using an optical coherence tomography (OCT) device (DRI OCT Triton, Topcon, Japan). Patients' demographic data and operation durations will be recorded. Intraocular pressure (IOP) will be measured in the supine position after intubation (T1), during pneumoperitoneum (T2), in the steep Trendelenburg position (23°, head down) (T3), at the end of the operation when pneumoperitoneum is terminated (T4), after returning to the supine position (T5), and 10 minutes after returning to the supine position (T6). Simultaneously with IOP measurements, the patients' hemodynamic data (Blood pressure, heart rate, end-tidal CO2, partial saturation) will be recorded.

Interventions

DEVICE

tonopen

Intraoculer pressure will be measured in the supine position after intubation (T1), during pneumoperitoneum (T2), when placed in steep trendelenburg posıtıon (T3), at the end of the operation when pneumoperitoneum is terminated (T4), after being placed back in the supine position (T5), and 10 minutes after being placed back in the supine position (T6).
