Correlation between central corneal thickness and intraocular pressure peak and fluctuation during the water drinking test in glaucoma patients

Abstract: OBJECTIVE:To investigate the correlation between central corneal thickness and outflow facility assessed by intraocular pressure peak and fluctuation during the water drinking test.METHODS:Fifty‐five newly diagnosed primary open‐angle glaucoma patients submitted to central corneal thickness measurements and water drinking test were enrolled in this retrospective study.;. Patients were divided into three groups according to their central corneal thickness. Pearson's Correlation test was performed in the groups … Show more

“…Under physiological circumstances, when individuals are given 1 L of water to drink rapidly, osmotic dilution inhibits vasopressin release, thus initiating diuresis, with the fluid rapidly leaving the system as urine. IOP peaks detected during the WDT predict the peaks observed during a 24‐h diurnal tension curve . Regulation of IOP after water drinking has been shown to relate to factors affecting aqueous drainage.…”

“…In effect, the WDT is able to reveal dysfunction of the conventional outflow system. However, there appears to be no strong correlation between central corneal thickness and WDT results …”

“…Central corneal thickness was not measured in this study. Although the lack of this information could influence the classification of participants into OH or OAG groups, a previous study has demonstrated that WDT results are not influenced by corneal thickness . Moreover, even if misclassification occurred, it did not affect the analysis of reproducibility given the within‐subject comparison at two different time points using paired analyses.…”
