Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate diurnal variations in intraocular pressure (IOP) in normal adult residents of Yazd city.Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on 800 eyes of 400 subjects aged between 20- 80 years selected by cluster random sampling from residents of Yazd city during 2004-2005. Lop was measured by Goldman applanation tonometer in the morning (8-9AM) and evening (8-9 PM). The difference between the two measurements was considered as diurnal variation of IOP.Results: Mean IOP was 14.80±1.83 mm Hgin the morning and 11.58±2.0 mmHg in the evening in right eyes and 14.79±1.89 MmHg in the morning and 11.33±2.0 mmHg in the evening in left eyes (P<0.001). Mean diurnal variation of IOP was 3.23±1.23 mmHg in females, 3.46±1.23 mmHg in males and 3.34±1.05 mmHg, overall (P<0.001). Morning IOP was higher in 84%, the same in 13.6% and lower in 2.4% compared to evening values. IOP increased with aging. There was no significant difference in mean IOP between males and females.Conclusion: This study revealed that IOP is usually higher in the morning in both eyes and increases with ageing in both sexes.
