Intraocular Pressure Fluctuation

Background.To investigate the correlation between intraocular pressure (IOP) fluctuation with postural change and IOP in relation to the time course after trabeculectomy.Methods.A total of 29 patients who had previously undergone primary trabeculectomy with mitomycin C were examined. IOP was obtained at 1, 2, 3, 6, and 12 months and then every 6 months postoperatively.Results.The postural IOP difference before surgery was3.0±1.8 mmHg, which was reduced to0.9±1.1 mmHg at 1 month,1.0±1.0 mmHg at 2 months,1.3±2.0 mmHg at 3 months,1.3±1.4 mmHg at 6 months,1.4±1.5 mmHg at 12 months, and1.1±0.7 mmHg at 18 months after trabeculectomy (P<0.01each visit). The filtering surgery failed in 7 out of 29 eyes. Postural IOP changes were less than 3 mmHg in those patients who did not require needle revision at every visit. However, in patients who did require needle revision, the increase in the posture-induced IOP was greater than 3 mmHg prior to the increase in the sitting position IOP.Conclusions.Assessment of postural IOP changes after trabeculectomy might be potentially useful for predicting IOP changes after trabeculectomy.
