title: The BP/IOP ratio in the elderly and its relation to glaucomatous changes.
abstract: A group of 32 patients had their blood pressure measured, fields plotted, intraocular pressure determined, and ocular fundi inspected. The ratio of the blood pressures (systolic and diastolic) to the intraocular pressure is shown to be of limited use as a predictor of glaucomatous damage in the eye.
