The effect of standardised submaximal work load on intraocular pressure

A Shapiro et al. Br J Ophthalmol. 1978 Oct.

Abstract

A relatively small decrease in intraocular pressure secondary to submaximal work can be demonstrated when factors other than the work load itself are eliminated--diurnal variation, body position, and the effect of repeated examinations. A feedback mechanism that causes a return of IOP towards its normal value after work-induced decreases is postulated.
