Abstract:
:The effects of psychological stress and the Valsalva maneuver on short-term variations of intraocular pressure (IOP) were studied in 49 healthy adults. Psychological stress consisted of mental arithmetic tasks presented in counterbalanced order by computer and by the experimenter. Additionally, a standardized Valsalva maneuver was performed (in counterbalanced order with the psychological stressors). IOP was measured with a Goldmann tonometer before and after performance of each stressor. All three stressors transiently and highly significantly increased IOP, although the Valsalva maneuver produced changes of a greater magnitude (10.2 mmHg) than the psychological stressors (1.3 mmHg). Subjective stress ratings and heart rate increased in response to all stressors. There were no effects of task sequence, eye muscle tension, sex, smoking status (some smokers misreported their smoking status), or regular marijuana use, but regular physical exercise was associated with less IOP increase during psychological stress.
