Abstract

The known ring compression tests used in ophthalmology apply pressure to the anterior part of the eye, so the iris-ciris diaphragm must be displaced to the back. All authors use compressors in the form of a continuous ring. This causes blockage of the drainage pathways, and the results depend not so much on the outflow but on the formation of intraocular fluid. The aim of this proposal is to create a method that would allow aqueous outflow of aqueous humour to be investigated with uniform anterior displacement of the iridocorneal diaphragm and a precisely dosed compression load. This creates the conditions for impaired intraocular fluid circulation in the glaucoma-prone eye.
