Intraocular pressure (IOP) decreased with age in a population-based study in Nepal, from a mean of 14.1 mm Hg among those 60-64 years old to 13.0 mm Hg among those 80 years old or older....
Few studies have assessed the distribution of IOP from the Indian subcontinent, despite its large population and high burden of glaucoma. The objective of this study was to assess the distribution of ...
In a population-based cross-sectional study, all individuals aged 60 years and older from an area of lowland Nepal were invited for an IOP assessment with a rebound tonometer....
Of 160 communities (28,672 people aged ≥60 y) enrolled, 79 (13,808 people aged ≥60 y) were randomly selected for IOP testing. Of those eligible, 10,017 (72.5%) individuals underwent tonometry. Mean IO...
Mean IOP was lower among older individuals in Nepal, consistent with many studies from East Asia and in contrast to many studies from western populations. These results suggest that ethnic background ...

One hundred and one eyes from 101 participants diagnosed with glaucoma or glaucoma suspect were evaluated in this study. IOP was measured by iCare PRO and iCare IC200 tonometers in a randomized sequen...
Overall, there was good agreement among the 3 tonometers used in this study. The ICC for the iCare PRO and the iCare IC200 was 0.95 (p < 0.001), and the ICC for the iCare PRO and the GAT and the iCare...
Our results demonstrated a good agreement between iCare tonometers and GAT; but iCare tonometers underestimated IOP compared to the GAT....
The iCare HOME2 tonometer generally can be considered reliable for most eyes and clinical settings, although it may produce slightly overestimated or underestimated intraocular pressure (IOP) readings...
To evaluate the accuracy, correlation, and analysis of differences in IOP measurements between the gold standard Goldmann applanation tonometer (GAT) and the new, self-measurement iCare HOME2 tonomete...
In this retrospective study, patients were randomly selected from those who attended a routine examination in our clinic. After a complete ocular examination, each patient's IOP was measured and recor...
One hundred thirty-five eyes of 70 patients were included in the study. The mean IOP measured with GAT was 16.3 ± 6.5 mm Hg (range: 3-56). The mean IOP measured with iCare HOME2 was 16.5 ± 7.3 mm Hg (...
The iCare HOME2 could be a reliable tonometer for most eyes and clinical settings. Central corneal thickness measurement is recommended in patients who use the instrument....
Intraocular pressure (IOP) can increase with postural changes, which can cause ocular complications. Neck extension is commonly used during palatoplasty to improve surgical angulation. This study eval...
In this prospective observational study, IOP was measured using a rebound tonometer at four specific time points: T1, 10 min after anaesthesia while in the supine position; T2, 5 min after neck extens...
Thirty-seven patients were included. IOP at T2 was significantly higher than at T1 (15.8 ± 3.4 mmHg vs 10.5 ± 2.8 mmHg, P < 0.001), and IOPs at T3 and T4 were also significantly higher than at T1 (T3 ...
Our findings indicate that the intraoperative neck extension position during palatoplasty significantly increases IOP in paediatric cleft palate patients undergoing a palatoplasty....
Relationship between intraocular pressure (IOP) change and central corneal curvature is complicated by measurement techniques and corneal biomechanical parameters. Findings from this study indicate th...
This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the diurnal change in IOP and central corneal power among eyes with and without myopia....
Sixty healthy eyes of 24 emmetropes and 36 myopes were recruited for this cross-sectional study. Both anterior and posterior central corneal powers of the steep (Ks), flat (Kf), mean meridian (Km), be...
Group mean, amplitude of change, and the diurnal change in IOPg were (mean ± standard deviation) 15.14 ± 2.50, 3.33 ± 1.44, and 1.81 ± 1.25 mmHg, respectively. Overall, an IOP increase was associated ...
Change in anterior corneal power was inversely related to the change in IOPg, with myopic and nonmyopic eyes reporting a significant but differential impact of IOP. Clinicians must keep in mind the im...
To evaluate the effect of intranasal mometasone furoate (INMF) on short-term intraocular pressure (IOP) alterations in children with allergic rhinitis (AR)....
Children diagnosed with AR and to whom INMF nasal spray had been firstly prescribed were enrolled. Cases with any ocular diseases except for refractive errors were excluded. Complete ophthalmologic ex...
Study population consisted of 62 right eyes of 62 children with a mean age of 8.55 ± 3.14 years. Of them, 29 were female (46.8%) and 33 were male (53.2%). Dilated fundoscopy revealed an enlarged Cup/D...
Since children have greater risk for steroid-induced ocular hypertensive response than adults, ophthalmologic evaluation must be recommended in children receiving intranasal steroids....
Intraocular pressure is currently the only known reliable, modifiable risk factor for the development and progression of glaucoma. Other risk factors for glaucoma include increasing age, myopia, decre...
Although Omidenepag isopropyl drops elicited stable intraocular pressure reductions in NTG patients, transient changes in refraction and corneal endothelial cells, significant increase of central corn...
To analyze the efficacy and safety of 0.002% omidenepag Isopropyl (OMDI) eye drops in patients with normal tension glaucoma (NTG)....
Medical records for 62 eyes treated with OMDI for ≥6 months were analyzed. Intraocular pressure (IOP), refraction, keratometry, central corneal thickness (CCT), endothelial cell count, coefficient of ...
IOP significantly decreased from 13.4±3.8 to 11.9±3.0, 11.7±2.9, and 12.2±3.3 mm Hg at each follow-up ( P <0.001). Endothelial cell count did not change, but CV transiently increased from 12.6 to 17.0...

Records of 29 eyes of 29 consecutive CMV AU patients undergoing MMC-augmented trabeculectomy for uncontrolled IOP despite maximal tolerated topical medications were retrospectively reviewed. Treatment...
Treatment success was 79.3% (23/29) at 24 months. Both median IOP and number of IOP-lowering medications dropped significantly from baseline (p < .01 and p < .001, all time-points, Wilcoxon sign-rank ...
MMC-augmented trabeculectomy was efficacious for IOP control in nearly 80% of CMV AU cases over two years....
To investigate the effects of different reading postures on intraocular pressure (IOP) and near-work-induced transient myopia (NITM) in children with myopia....
Sixty myopic children were instructed to read a book text placed at 33 cm for 30 min with two different reading postures: head bowed and head upright postures. The participants' IOP and NITM were asse...
For the head bowed posture, the mean baseline IOP was 16.13 ± 2.47 mmHg. A significant rise in IOP was observed after 5 min of reading (17.17 ± 2.97 mmHg; +1.03 ± 2.29 mmHg; p = 0.014). Subsequent mea...
