Hernia surgery may raise eye pressure: new study investigates
NCT ID NCT07337603
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
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 the procedure cause temporary increases in eye pressure, which could be a risk for some patients.
