As pressure is a measure of force per area, IOP is a measurement involving the magnitude of the force exerted by the aqueous humor on
trouble concentrating
Some side effects may occur that usually do not need medical attention
Untreated high eye pressure can lead to glaucoma and harm your vision
Introduction
Glaucoma is often, though not always, associated with increased intraocular pressure (IOP)
Results Topical and systemic corticosteroids induce complex changes inside the trabecular meshwork
The optic nerve sends visual information from your eye to your brain and is vital for good vision
Further research continues to
As the disease progresses, there is a slow loss of peripheral vision in both eyes; eventually leading to loss of central vision if left undetected or untreated
P r ostaglandin analogues are the first-line choice for addressing elevated intraocular pressure in a glaucoma patient or suspect (provided that there are no contraindications or preexisting allergies to any of the components)
Treatment includes relieving the brain of the increased pressure
While elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is not pathognomonic for the disease, it remains critical in disease detection and management
In that case, despite the initial eye pressure Increased intraocular pressure (IOP) occurs when aqueous fluid in the eye – used to transport important nutrients to the lens and cornea – accumulates and cannot drain naturally
