An exploration of through-the-eye intraocular pressure measurement device
Glaucoma, caused by an elevated intraocular pressure (IOP), is one of the leading causes of blindness. As constant monitoring of IOP is essential in the treatment of glaucoma, the IOP measurement techniques described in patents and patent applications since 1950 are examined. None of the methods …

The effects of Nd:YAG laser cyclophotocoagulation on corneal sensitivity, intraocular pressure, aqueous tear production and corneal nerve morphology in the canine eye
… dogs had evidence of ulcerative keratitis. Intraocular pressure was significantly lower in laser treated eyes compared to control eyes in the a.m. on days 2-9,and 14, and in the p.m. on days 2-11 using a Bonferroni-corrected alpha level (P<0.0039). A significant decrease of one nerve bundle …
