Measuring Intraocular Pressure (IOP) is a critical field of research in ophthalmology. This work presents and energetic approach to study the Non Contact Tonometry based on results Fluid Structure Interaction simulation. Then, combining these with clinical images, new method estimate IOP proposed.

OBJECTIVE To determine if prophylactic use of intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering medication is effective in reducing the IOP spikes after intravitreal injections of pegaptanib, bevacizumab, and ranibizumab. METHODS Seventy-one patients with exudative age-related macular degeneration received intravitreal injections of 1 of 3 anti-vascular endothelial growth factor medications: 30 patients re...

The objective of the study was to evaluate the antiglaucoma effect of calcium channel blockers diltiazem and verapamil. Albino rabbits were used and chronic glaucoma was induced in them using freshly prepared 150 units of alphachymotrypsin. 0.1 mL of drug solution was administered topically into the left eye whereas the right served as control. The pressure recording was carried out at 15, 30, ...

purpose: to evaluate the effects of diurnal fasting during ramadan on intraocular pressure (iop) in healthy subjects. methods: the study was conducted on healthy male volunteer less than 40 years of age without ocular or systemic diseases who were on religious fasting during ramadan, 2004. intraocular pressure were measured at 9 am and 1, 5, and 7 pm in 2nd and 4th weeks of ramadan and also one...

The tissue pressure of the intraocular contents is called the intraocular pressure (IOP). The normal range for IOP is 10–20 mm Hg and is maintained at this level throughout life and between the sexes, though there is some diurnal and seasonal variation. Control of IOP within the correct physiological range is necessary to maintain the anatomical conditions necessary for optimal refraction and t...

Background: In many clinical situations, knowledge of central venous pressure (CVP) is important.  Measurement of CVP is not always possible. Objective: To determine if intraocular pressure (IOP) can be used as an estimate for CVP. Methods: IOP and CVP were measured concurrently in 30 candidates of coronary artery bypass graft surgery.  Those with carotid artery or jugular venous diseases as we...

purpose: to develop a computational model for predicting the fluid production and flow, and intraocular pressure (iop) following glaucoma surgery. methods: to help elucidate the interplay of physical factors controlling the distribution and absorption of aqueous humor in sub-conjunctival tissue, and tissue remodeling, a computational model is developed to predict the fluid production in the eye...

purpose : to evaluate intraocular pressure (iop) and anterior chamber depth (acd) change after phacoemulsification with posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation methods : in this quasi-experimental study, 84 patients with senile cataract were included. all patients had normal iop. patients with traumatic and complicated cataract, any history of uveitis, glaucoma, or other ocular disease ...
