Abstract

Variations in intraocular pressure during anaesthesia were studied prospectively in two groups of 20 patients selected randomly. The first group received sevoflurane and the second group received IV propofol. Intraocular pressure, heart rate, arterial pressure and oxygen saturation were measured before and after induction of anaesthesia and following vecuronium. Compared with baseline values, the decrease in intraocular pressure were similar (p>0.05) and statistically significant (p<0.05) in two groups. Haemodynamic control were better in sevoflurane group. In ophthalmic operations when intraocular pressure control were required, both anaestetic agents seem to be proper.
