[Interocular pressure after injection of etomidate and methohexital-na (author's transl)]

Studies of i.o. pressure, blood pressure and pulse frequence after injection of Etomidate and Methohexital-Na are carried out. I.o. pressure decreases after both, Etomidate and Methohexital. Blood pressure decreases more after injection of Methohexital-Na. After than intubation, with Etomidate, i.o. pressure was higher than normal, but it was normal with Methohexital-Na. Blood pressure increases in all the three groups. Before operation starts, i.o. pressure, blood pressure and pulse was lower as at the beginning.
