The Water Drinking Test in Glaucoma Study
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Modified Diurnal Tension Curve for Glaucoma. Completed, enrolled 46 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
To investigate the correlation and agreement between the intraocular pressure peaks detected during the water drinking test and modified diurnal tension curve in glaucomatous eyes and to analyse whether this is associated with prognostic outcome. The study will also measure autonomic nervous system activation during the test to investigate one possible mechanism behind it.

Timeline
Interventions
The modified diurnal tension curve (mDTC), an alternative that involves IOP measurements every 2 or 3 hours during office hours, is more feasible and may provide better information regarding the IOP profile than single IOP measurements.
