Sleeping position alters intraocular pressure
Eye World, 09/14/09
Realini T – These findings are intriguing but will require confirmation in larger clinical trials. In the meantime, the possibility of lowering IOP by up to 3 mmHg or 20% simply by changing sleeping position is highly attractive as an adjunct to traditional medical or surgical IOP–lowering therapy. The magnitude of the effect is comparable to the anticipated effect of adjunctive medical therapy or laser trabeculoplasty, costs nothing, and has no appreciable risk.
