[Diurnal fluctuations of intraocular pressure in keratoconus].
By means of a Digilab pneumotonometer the author determined every 2 hours (from 7 a.m. till 10 p.m.) the IOP in 73 eyes of 37 patients with a keratoconus; there were 25 men and 12 women aged 16 to 40 years. The mean upper value for the R. eye amounted 19.243 +/- 2.842 mm Hg, for the L. eye 18.056 +/- 2.797 mm Hg. The means oscillation of the IOP in a day equalized 7.000 +/- 2.415 mm Hg in the R. eye and 6.000 +/- 2.378 mm Hg in the L. eye.
