Purpose:
|
To evaluate intraocular ocular pressure (IOP) changes after water drinking test (WDT) in POAG patients using ocular response analyzer (ORA)
|
|
Methods:
|
This prospective case control study included 67 eyes including 25 medically controlled patients (group 1), 24 surgically treated patients (group 2), and 18 normal individuals (group 3). Baseline CCT, and ORA parameters including corneal hysteresis (CH), corneal resistance factor (CRF), corneal-compensated IOP (IOPcc), and Goldmann correlated IOP (IOPg) were measured. Measurements were repeated 15, 30 and 60 minutes after WDT (drinking 1000 mL of water in 15 minutes)
|
|
Results:
|
The groups were not significantly different in age, and CCT changes. Other parameters showed significant changes after WDT. Group 2 had significantly lower baseline IOP compared to other groups. All groups showed statistically significant increases in IOP at all time periods. Peak IOP was at 15 minutes and decreased gradually over time. Baseline CH and CRF were the lowest in group 2. CRF showed an initial increase and gradual decrease over time while CH showed continuous decrease in glaucoma patients.
|
|
Conclusion:
|
Medical management of glaucoma is associated with constant IOP increase and less IOP fluctuation after WDT while surgically treated eyes show late increase in IOP and higher IOP fluctuations
