Relationship Between Nocturnal Intraocular Pressure Elevation and Diurnal Intraocular Pressure Level in Normal-Tension Glaucoma Patients.
PURPOSE We studied the relationship between nocturnal habitual position IOP elevation and diurnal IOP level in normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) patients. METHODS A total of 70 young NTG patients with a low diurnal IOP level (mean diurnal seated IOP < 15.0 mm Hg; low IOP group) and 79 age-, axial length-, and disease severity-matched NTG patients with a high diurnal IOP level (mean diurnal seated...
متن کاملDiurnal intraocular pressure and blood pressure with two dosing regimens of brimonidine in normal tension glaucoma.
BACKGROUND To compare the effects of 2 dosing regimens of brimonidine tartrate 0.2% on diurnal intraocular pressure (IOP) and systemic hemodynamics in patients with normal-tension glaucoma (NTG). METHODS Twenty NTG patients were enrolled and randomized to receive either brimonidine twice daily (BID) for 4 weeks followed by brimonidine 3 times daily (TID) for another 4 weeks, or in reverse ord...
متن کاملIntraocular pressure and central visual field of normal tension glaucoma.
AIM To study whether damage in the central 30 degrees field of normal tension glaucoma (NTG) is relatively heterogeneous or homogeneous with respect to intraocular pressure (IOP) related damage. METHODS Using the results of Humphrey perimeter examinations, the central 30 degrees field was divided into four subfields; superior and inferior hemifields excluding the caecocentral field (30-2 prog...
متن کاملCircadian Blood Pressure and Intraocular Pressure Patterns in Normal Tension Glaucoma Patients with Undisturbed Sleep
PURPOSE To investigate and compare the circadian pattern of blood pressure (BP), intraocular pressure (IOP) and mean ocular perfusion pressure (MOPP) while experiencing undisturbed sleep in normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) and non-glaucoma control patient groups. METHODS Twenty-four eyes from 24 patients diagnosed with NTG and 22 eyes from 22 control group patients were enrolled. Systolic BP, di...
متن کاملRelationship Between Nocturnal Intraocular Pressure Variations and Sleep Macrostructure.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to characterize the relationships between nocturnal intraocular pressure (IOP) variations and sleep macrostructure in healthy subjects. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study conducted in a center with shared expertise in chronobiology. Twelve healthy volunteers (22.3 ± 2.3 years) underwent a 24-hour IOP measurement session. The IOP variations of one ey...
