Significance of simultaneous monitoring of intraocular pressure and blood pressure for 24 hours in glaucoma

Journal Title: Eye Science (Yanke Xuebao) - Year 2021, Vol 36, Issue 2

Abstract

Glaucoma is a major eye disease causing blindness and visual damage worldwide, and it is also one of the irreversible eye diseases causing blindness. Intraocular pressure (IOP) is an important risk factor for the development of glaucoma, and the influence of blood pressure (BP) on the progression of glaucoma also cannot be ignored. Eye perfusion pressure is the difference between blood pressure and intraocular pressure, regulating the blood supply to the optic nerves. IOP, BP and perfusion pressure are related to the occurrence and the progression of glaucoma. Literature review was performed related to the effects of IOP and BP on glaucoma, and the application of 24-hour IOP and BP monitoring in glaucoma, aiming to analyze the significance of simultaneous monitoring of IOP and BP for 24 hours.
