INTRAOCULAR PRESSURE

This study compared two treatments for advanced open-angle glaucoma: a gentle laser (subthreshold diode laser) and a surgical procedure (trabeculotomy). 80 adults with severe glaucoma that was not controlled by maximum medications took part. The goal was to see which treatment be…

This completed pilot study tested whether the Nidek TONOREF III, a device that measures eye pressure and other eye features, gives results similar to the standard Goldmann tonometer. Fifty-two adults had their eye pressure measured with both devices to check for agreement. The go…

This study checked if a new device called the iCare IC1000 can accurately measure pressure inside the eye. Researchers compared it to standard tonometers in 168 adults. The goal was to see if the IC1000 meets official accuracy standards for use in clinics.

This study tested a new smart contact lens called miLens that records eye pressure patterns over 24 hours in 86 adults with glaucoma and healthy volunteers. Participants wore the lens in one eye and took smartphone readings every 15 minutes while awake. Researchers compared the l…

This study compared two new iCare tonometers (ST500 and IC200) against standard devices to see if they measure eye pressure accurately. Researchers tested 122 adults with different eye pressure levels. The goal was to see if the new devices meet strict accuracy standards, which c…

This study looked at how eye pressure changes when breath-hold divers hold their breath. Forty divers had their eye pressure, oxygen levels, heart rate, and blood pressure measured before, during, and after holding their breath. The goal was to understand these changes and how th…

This study looked at how the position of a patient's arms during spinal anesthesia affects pressure inside the eye. Sixty adults having hernia repair were randomly placed with arms at their sides or hands on their chest. Eye pressure was measured before and after anesthesia to se…

This study looked at how two common laparoscopic hernia repair methods (TAPP and TEP) affect pressure inside the eye. Sixty adults with groin hernias had their eye pressure measured before and after surgery. The goal was to understand if the surgical position and gas used during …

This study looked at 120 children with glaucoma or suspected glaucoma who needed eye exams under anesthesia. The goal was to see if a standard anesthesia plan could produce consistent and reliable eye pressure measurements. Researchers measured how deep the anesthesia was and com…

This study looked at whether two common steroid injections for knee osteoarthritis—betamethasone and triamcinolone hexacetonide—affect eye pressure differently. Eighty adults with early-stage knee pain received one of the injections, and their eye pressure was measured before and…

This completed study looked at how two different anesthesia gas flows affect eye pressure and optic nerve during kidney stone surgery. Sixty adults having the procedure were randomly assigned to receive either minimal low-flow or high-flow anesthesia. Researchers measured eye pre…
