Other studies show global brain blood flow increases 20–30% during the transition from rest to moderate exercise. [33] [34] More recent work has shown that an increase in exercise intensity up to 60% VO 2 max results in an increase in CBF, after which CBF decreases towards (and sometimes below) baseline values with increasing exercise intensity.
Intraocular pressure (IOP) is the fluid pressure inside the eye. Tonometry is the method eye care professionals use to determine this. IOP is an important aspect in the evaluation of patients at risk of glaucoma. [1] Most tonometers are calibrated to measure pressure in millimeters of mercury .
Ocular hypertension is the presence of elevated fluid pressure inside the eye (intraocular pressure), usually with no optic nerve damage or visual field loss. [1] [2]For most individuals, the normal range of intraocular pressure is between 10 mmHg and 21 mmHg. [3]
For example, in an aircraft that is making a coordinated (banked) turn, no matter how steep, occupants will have little or no sensation of being tilted in the air unless the horizon is visible, as the combined forces of lift and gravity are felt as pressing the occupant into the seat without a lateral force sliding them to either side.

Under negative g, blood pressure will increase in the head, running the risk of the dangerous condition known as redout, with too much blood pressure in the head and eyes. Because of the high level of sensitivity that the eye’s retina has to hypoxia, symptoms are usually first experienced visually.
Plus, walking in the morning was found to improve blood pressure, insulin concentration, and insulin resistance compared to walking in the afternoon in patients with metabolic syndrome, per a 2023 ...

When the area of a circle with diameter 3.06 mm (0.120 in) has been flattened, the opposing forces of corneal rigidity and the tear film are roughly approximate and cancel each other out allowing the pressure in the eye to be determined from the force applied. Like all non-invasive methods, it is inherently imprecise and may need to be adjusted.
