Intra-ocular pressure changes during maximal isometric contraction: does this reflect intra-cranial pressure or retinal venous pressure?
- R. Dickerman, G. Smith, L. Langham-Roof, W. Mcconathy, J. East, A. B. Smith
- Medicine
- Neurological research
- 1 April 1999
Recent publications have suggested that intra-ocular pressure (IOP) may be an indirect assessment of intra-cranial pressure (ICP). Both IOP and ICP have similar physiologic pressure ranges and… Expand
