    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]

  3. Intraocular pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraocular_pressure

    Differences in pressure between the two eyes are often clinically significant, and potentially associated with certain types of glaucoma, as well as iritis or retinal detachment. Intraocular pressure may become elevated due to anatomical problems, inflammation of the eye, genetic factors, or as a side-effect from medication. Intraocular ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocular_tonometry

    When the sensor is subjected to a change in pressure, the electrical resistance is altered and the tonometer's computer calculates a change in pressure according to the change in resistance. A complete measurement cycle requires about eight seconds of contact time. The device also measures the variation in pressure that occurs with the cardiac ...

    The results indicated that those who read using the PDF files performed much worse than those reading off of a paper. A conclusion was reached that certain aspects of screen reading, such as scrolling, can impede comprehension. [9] However, not all experiments have concluded that reading from a digitized screen can be detrimental.

  7. Glaucoma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glaucoma

    A study with 1636 persons aged 40-80 who had an intraocular pressure above 24 mmHg in at least one eye, but no indications of eye damages, showed that after five years, 9.5% of the untreated participants and 4.4% of the treated participants had developed glaucomatous symptoms, meaning that only about one in 10 untreated people with elevated ...

  8. Normal tension glaucoma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_tension_glaucoma

    Over many years, glaucoma has been defined by an intraocular pressure of more than 20 mm Hg. Incompatible with this (now obsolete) definition of glaucoma was the ever larger number of cases that have been reported in medical literature in the 1980s and 1990s who had the typical signs of glaucomatous damage, like optic nerve head excavation and thinning of the retinal nerve fiber layer, while ...

  9. Reading comprehension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reading_comprehension

    Reading comprehension and vocabulary are inextricably linked together. The ability to decode or identify and pronounce words is self-evidently important, but knowing what the words mean has a major and direct effect on knowing what any specific passage means while skimming a reading material.
