Intraocular pressure in patients suffering from Wilson's disease

Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate intraocular pressure (IOP) levels in patients suffering from Wilsons disease. Methods: In observational, cross-sectional, non-interventional study, IOP was measured by applanation tonometry in 52 patients with Wilson's disease (WD), and compared to 52 healthy controls (HC). Results: Patients with Wilsons disease had significantly lower IOPs, compared to control group (CG) (13.20 ± 2.5 versus 14.98 ± 2.0, p <.000, t test). Conclusions: We found that IOP is significantly lower in patients with WD. © The Author(s) 2024.
