INTRAOCULAR PRESSURE

This study compared two treatments for advanced open-angle glaucoma: a gentle laser (subthreshold diode laser) and a small surgery (trabeculotomy). 80 adults with advanced glaucoma that wasn't controlled by medications were followed for 12 months. The goal was to see which treatm…

This study checked if a new device called the iCare IC1000 tonometer accurately measures pressure inside the eye. 168 adults with different eye pressure levels took part. The goal was to make sure the device meets official standards for safety and accuracy.

This study tested a new contact lens device 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 pictures every 15 minutes while awake. Researchers compared the lens readings …

This study checked if two iCare tonometers (ST500 and IC200) can measure eye pressure as accurately as standard methods. 122 adults had their eye pressure measured with both the new devices and reference tonometers. The goal was to see if the quick readings match within a small e…

This study tested a new device, the TONOREF III, to see if it measures eye pressure as well as a standard tool. 52 adults took part. The goal was to check if the new device gives similar results and is just as safe.

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 how holding your breath changes pressure inside the eye. Forty breath-hold divers had their eye pressure, oxygen levels, heart rate, and blood pressure measured before, during, and after a breath-hold. The goal was to understand these changes and how they mig…

This study looked at 60 adults having kidney stone surgery to see how different anesthesia flows affect eye pressure and the optic nerve. Patients were placed face-down and given either low-flow or high-flow anesthesia. The goal was to find which method better protects the eyes d…

This study looked at 120 children with glaucoma or suspected glaucoma who needed eye exams under anesthesia. The goal was to see if a specific, standardized anesthesia protocol would produce reliable and repeatable eye pressure measurements. Researchers measured how deep the anes…

This study looked at whether two common steroid injections for knee arthritis have different effects on eye pressure. 80 adults with early knee osteoarthritis received either betamethasone or triamcinolone hexacetonide into the knee joint. Eye pressure was measured before the inj…

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