Purpose:
The purpose of this study was to evaluate intraocular pressure (IOP) levels in patients suffering from Wilsons disease.
Methods:
In observational, cross-sectional, non-interventional study, IOP was measured by applanation tonometry in 52 patients with Wilson's disease (WD), and compared to 52 healthy controls (HC).
Results:
Patients with Wilsons disease had significantly lower IOPs, compared to control group (CG) (13.20 ± 2.5 versus 14.98 ± 2.0, p < .000, t test).
Conclusions:
We found that IOP is significantly lower in patients with WD.
