Diurnal Variation of IOP in Angle Closure Disease: Are We Doing Enough?
Intraocular pressure (IOP) is known to have a definite circadian rhythm and its fluctuation correlates well with glaucoma progression. Twenty-four hour monitoring of IOP is an important indicator intraocular pressure fluctuation, as well as its peaks and spikes. However, Diurnal variation in IOP is...

description | Intraocular pressure (IOP) is known to have a definite circadian rhythm and its fluctuation correlates well with glaucoma progression. Twenty-four hour monitoring of IOP is an important indicator intraocular pressure fluctuation, as well as its peaks and spikes. However, Diurnal variation in IOP is well recognized but many decisions in glaucoma management are taken after one or two IOP measurements. Patient directed self-tonometry can be preformed through the twenty-four cycle, and has been the subject of an ongoing debate. In this review, we studied the history of self-tonometry devices and the present technologies for future. The results of various techniques studied revealed that a standardized method of conducting diurnal variation is yet to be ascertained, and for this, a proper research method is required. |
