The Correlation between Intracranial Pressure and Intraocular Pressure after Brain Surgery
Journal Title: International Journal of Ophthalmology & Eye Science (IJOES) - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 6
Abstract
Objective: This study was to explore whether the intracranial pressure (ICP) changes and intraocular pressure (IOP) changes are synchronized after brain surgery. We also want to see whether measurement of IOP could be used to monitor ICP. Materials and methods: We evaluated the correlation between intracranial pressure and intraocular pressure in 15 patients with meningioma admitted to our hospital. All patients required the intracranial pressure monitoring on clinical grounds. Intraocular pressures were measured by portable non-contact tonometer. We simultaneous recorded the intracranial pressure and intraocular pressure once a time per hour.
