24-Hour Intraocular Pressure Rhythm in Patients With Untreated Primary Open Angle Glaucoma and Effects of Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty.

After medical treatment wash-out, patients with open angle glaucoma consistently had a significant 24-hour IOP rhythm with nocturnal acrophase. SLT reduces the absolute IOP value but does not modify the nyctohemeral IOP rhythm.

Comparison of intraocular pressure measurements with the Reichert Pt100, the Keeler Pulsair Intellipuff portable noncontact tonometers, and Goldmann applanation tonometry.

The 2 NCTs agree well with GAT in normotensive patients. The Pulsair Intellipuff also agrees well with GAT in hypertensive patients.
