Hemoglobin Video Imaging Detects Differences in Aqueous Outflow Between Eyes With and Without Glaucoma During the Water Drinking Test

Conclusions:

AO volume, estimated by AqCA, increases in response to IOP elevation induced by an ingested water bolus in patients with and without glaucoma. The increase in aqueous drainage was not sustained in glaucomatous eyes and may have led to incomplete recovery of IOP. Using HVI in combination with the WDT may assist with clinical decision-making and facilitate the monitoring of responses to treatment.
