Eye pressure during back surgery in the face-down position
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study measures the pressure inside your eye while you are lying face down during back surgery. It helps understand how this position affects eye pressure, which is important for your safety.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for back surgery (laminectomy) and will be under general anesthesia
- You are in good to moderate health overall (classified as ASA I, II, or III)
- You can cooperate and follow instructions after surgery
- You do not have any eye diseases like glaucoma, and you have not had eye surgery in the past
- You are willing to join the study and give your consent

This study looks at whether a specific anesthesia-related medicine (dexmedetomidine) affects eye pressure during planned spine operations done with the patient lying face-down under general anesthesia. It may help doctors choose safer anesthesia to reduce risks related to eye pressure changes.
This study measures how eye pressure and standard eye-function tests perform in people with normal eyes, higher eye pressure, or early signs of glaucoma. It may help researchers understand who is at risk and how best to monitor eye health before or during glaucoma.
This study compares three different devices (Goldmann, Icare, and Accupen) to measure eye pressure after vitreoretinal surgery. It aims to find the most accurate and comfortable method for patients.
This study looks at how the steep head-down position (Trendelenburg) and gas inflation during robot-assisted prostate surgery affect the sheath around the optic nerve. It aims to understand eye pressure changes to improve safety.
This study looks at how your eye's drainage angle changes after glaucoma surgery. It helps doctors understand what happens to the front part of your eye after procedures like laser or surgery to open the drainage area.
This study uses a simple ultrasound of the eye to measure eye structures. It aims to see if these measurements can help doctors check for pressure inside the head during your gallbladder surgery.
