eyeBIS: Establishment of an Anaesthetic Protocol for Examinations for Children With Glaucoma or Suspected Glaucoma
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Correct measurement of the intraocular pressure of children with glaucoma or suspected glaucoma is essential for diagnosis and therapy.
Despite new non-invasive measurement methods most of the children are uncooperative during the ophthalmological examination. Therefore examination under anaesthesia is needed.
A lot of perioperative factors influence the measurement of intraocular pressure.
Established and safe anaesthetic regimes have been modified regarding these factors. Aim of the study is to evaluate, if a standardized anaesthetic protocol generates reliable and reproducible measured values.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Correlation of depth of anesthesia an intraocular pressure [1 day]
The primary outcome measure is the association between intraocular pressure and bispectral index.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Bland Altmann Correlation of Applanation tonometry and rebound tonometry [1 day]
Comparison of two different examination tools
- Normal range of pediatric intraocular pressure [1 day]
Defining the normal range of pediatric intraocular pressure
- Correlation of the corneal thickness and the intraocular pressure [1 day]
