Studies on the Etiology of Glaucoma Part I. Existence of the Autonomic Eye Pressure Adjustment Function

The existence of autonomic adjustment functions of eye pressure was demonstrated in various ways, both clinically and experimentally. It is possible to consider that in normal condition, I.O.P. is controlled autonomically like cardiac or respiratory rate irrespective of the internal or external influences of the body. The auther calls such a phenomenon "autonomic eye pressure adjustment function". The mechanism of this physiological function will be reported on in articles to follow.
