| Summary: |
Purpose: The
purpose of this study was to define physiological
changes in intraocular pressure during pregnancy.
Material and methods: 182 healthy pregnant women
were examined cross-sectionaly throughout the pregnancy.
After measuring systolic and diastolic blood pressure
full ophthalmological examination was performed (visual
acuity, refractive error, intraocular pressure, slit
lamp examination and fundus exam). All subjects were
free from any systemic or ocular diseases.
Results: Intraocular pressure significantly
decreased during successive stages of pregnancy. The
results are presented as means ± SD. In the control
group mean IOP was 15,6 ± 1,81 mmHg. During first ten
weeks of pregnancy mean IOP was 15,33
± 1,98 mmHg, between 11-20 hbd was 14,52 ± 2,37 mmHg,
between 21-30 hbd was 13,47 ± 2,19 mmHg, and towards the
end of pregnancy (31-40 hbd) was 12,5 ± 1,96 mmHg. The
mean fall of IOP during whole pregnancy was 3,1 ± 0,38
mmHg (p < 0,001). In these subjects pregnancy decreased
IOP by 19,8%.
Conclusions: The study results showed a gradual,
statistically significant fall of intraocular pressure
during pregnancy. |
