[Hemodynamic processes in eye models with different levels of intraocular pressure]

Intraocular pressure effects on blood flow volumic rate in an eye model were examined in various arterial pressure levels and perfused liquid viscosity values. The findings evidence an exponential relationship between intraocular pressure elevation and blood flow volumic rate reduction. Hypotensive drugs should be prescribed with care to glaucoma patients, with the blood viscosity values monitored.
