Systematic Review of Current Devices for 24-h Intraocular Pressure Monitoring

Abstract: Glaucoma is a common optic neuropathy that can lead to irreversible vision loss, and intraocular pressure (IOP) is the only known modifiable risk factor. The primary method of treating glaucoma involves lowering IOP using medications, laser and/or invasive surgery. Currently, we rely on in-office measurements of IOP to assess diurnal variation and to define successful management of disease. These measurements only convey a fraction of a patient’s circadian IOP pattern and may frequently miss peak IOP levels. T… Show more

“…A contact lens can modify the corneal shape and thickness, which might have affected the values obtained. In this sense some authors have pointing out that the measures obtained by the CLS after several hours can be affected by these changes losing accuracy [66]. Finally, the CLS signal can be noisy and these large fluctuations should be analyzed in a subsequent study; in the current study the fluctuations due to bodily positions were minimized due to PSG.…”

“…Diurnal variations in intraocular pressure (IOP) are known to have an important role in glaucoma, and may also be important in myopia . Diurnal IOP can be assessed through repeated tonometry in a laboratory, or via home monitoring using hand held tonometry or continuously measuring contact lenses . IOP is known to be the greatest in the morning, and lowest before bedtime, with healthy adult subjects showing diurnal variations of approximately 4–5 mmHg .…”

“…These systems are of three main types: self-monitoring, temporary continuous monitoring and permanent continuous monitoring. 30 An example of a wearable device is the Triggerfish ® contact lens sensor (SENSIMED, Lausanne, Switzerland). This device can only measure relative changes rather than determine absolute pressure.…”
