“…In so doing, it may increase the size of aqueous veins for the period of time that the pressure is falling. On the other hand, if pilocarpine administra¬ tion does lower episcleral venous pressure primarily, then this would be reflected in a fall of intraocular pressure (see Equation [2] above). However, following pilocarpine, a dilatation of iris as well as episcleral vessels may be seen, and this may result in increased permeability to fluorescein.…”

“…When equation (1) is written in the form (2) Po=F/C+P, it is apparent that the abnormalities in intraocular pressure that characterize the glaucomatous state, as well as alterations induced by therapy, may be discussed GLAUCOMA in terms of changes in (I) C, the facility of aqueous outflow; (II) F, the rate of formation of aqueous humor, and (III) PT, the episcleral venous pressure.…”

The combined effects of acetazolamide and hypoxia upon several types of visual performance at conditions of low and high illumination were investigated. 2 groups of 18 Ss each received either acetazolamide or placebo tablets and were tested on the same visual measures both at sea level and at a terrestrial elevation of 12,800 ft. The results showed no statistically significant differences between visual performances at low and high elevations regardless of the illumination level. Although acetazolamide combined with hypoxia did not generate any visual anomalies, its effectiveness in reducing visual decrements produced by more severe hypoxia cannot be predicted from the data.
