A decrease in intraocular pressures was shown in healthy pregnant women.

📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Objective: To evaluate the physiologic changes in intraocular pressure associated with pregnancy in healthy Syrian refugee women in Turkey.Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, intraocular pressures were measured using a Goldmann tonometer in 235 patients in the first, second, and third trimester of pregnancy and puerperium among Syrian refugees in Turkey.Results: Mean intraocular pressures values of the right eye were 15.5±2.5 mmHg, 14.4±1.4 mmHg, 13.9±1.6 and 14.7±1.9 mmHg in the three trimesters and puerperium, respectively.
📊
Key Findings & Data:Mean intraocular pressures values of the left eye were 15.3±1.6 mmHg, 14.3±1.4 mmHg, 13.9±1.6 and 15.3±2.2 mmHg in the three trimesters and puerperium, respectively.
💡
Conclusion & Impact:A decrease in intraocular pressures was shown in healthy pregnant women.

Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the physiologic changes in intraocular pressure associated with pregnancy in healthy Syrian refugee women in Turkey.Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, intraocular pressures were measured using a Goldmann tonometer in 235 patients in the first, second, and third trimester of pregnancy and puerperium among Syrian refugees in Turkey.Results: Mean intraocular pressures values of the right eye were 15.5±2.5 mmHg, 14.4±1.4 mmHg, 13.9±1.6 and 14.7±1.9 mmHg in the three trimesters and puerperium, respectively. Mean intraocular pressures values of the left eye were 15.3±1.6 mmHg, 14.3±1.4 mmHg, 13.9±1.6 and 15.3±2.2 mmHg in the three trimesters and puerperium, respectively. The mean intraocular pressures values measured from both eyes were significantly higher in first trimester and puerperal period than in the third trimester (p<0.001).Conclusion: Changes in the intraocular pressure in pregnancy are common and temporary. This study shows the baseline changes in the intraocular pressure during pregnancy in healthy women. Therefore, we cannot extrapolate the results to the whole eye. A decrease in intraocular pressures was shown in healthy pregnant women.

Özet

Amaç: Türkiye'de yaşayan Suriyeli göçmenlerde gebelik esnasında göz içi basıncındaki fizyolojik değişikliklerin belirlenmesi.Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu kesitsel çalışmada Türkiye'de yaşayan 235 Suriyeli göçmenin birinci, ikinci ve üçüncü trimester gebelik ve puerperiyumda göz içi basınçları Goldmann tonometresi ile ölçülmüştür.Bulgular: Sağ göz için ortalama göz içi basıncı birinci, ikinci ve üçüncü trimester ve puerperiyum için sırasıyla 15,5±2,5 mmHg, 14,4±1,4 mmHg, 13,9±1,6 mmHg ve 14,7±1,9 mmHg olarak ölçülmüştür. Sol göz için sırasıyla göz içi basıncı 15,3±1,6 mmHg, 14,3±1,4 mmHg, 13,9±1,6 ve 15,3±2,2 mmHg olarak ölçülmüştür. Ortalama göz içi basıncı iki göz içinde birinci trimesterde ve puerperiyumda üçüncü trimestere göre daha yüksek olarak bulunmuştur (p<0,001).Sonuç: Gebelikte oküler değişiklikler yaygındır ve geçicidir. Bu çalışma Türkiye'de yaşayan gebe ve puerperiyumdaki Suriyeli göçmenlerden elde edilen verilerle yapılmıştır.
