title: [Infrared angiography in increased intraocular pressure].
abstract: Infrared angiography of the fundus was performed twice on a number of eyes of healthy subjects and glaucoma patients, once when IOP was normal and again when it was increased by around 20 mmHg. The passage of contrast medium through the eye, visible as increasing blackening of the film, was recorded quantitatively by computer-aided image analysis. In both groups there was a considerable diminution of fluorescence, in particular of the choroid; the effect on the central artery and the optic disk was somewhat less pronounced.
