An interventional study of Spinal anesthesia in Intraocular Pressure, sponsored by Adiyaman University Research Hospital. Completed at 1 site in Turkey. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 65 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2014-04-07.
Sponsored by Adiyaman University Research Hospital · Not applicable, Interventional, and Diagnostic
We aim to investigate the effect of spinal anesthesia on intraocular pressure.
Spinal anesthesia provides adequate anesthetic conditions for many operations. These operations include orthopedic, urological, gynecological and many general surgery operations. Although few, side effects of the procedure and its effects on body are well known. However, there is inadequate knowledge about the effects of spinal anesthesia on pressure changes in the eyes. These pressure changes in eyes can result in some detriments. Elevated pressures in the eyes can result in disease known as glaucoma, that makes hazard to eyes. Decreased eye pressures can also result in some eye detriments.
We aimed to investigate the effects of spinal anesthesia procedure on eye (intraocular) pressure changes.
Adiyaman University Research Hospital is the lead sponsor of 48 studies on the registry; 9 are open to participants now.

Spinal anesthesia for surgical procedure will be applied to the patients. Intraocular pressures will be measured before and after the procedure.
Other: Spinal anesthesia
Routine spinal anesthesia procedure will be made to the patients for surgical anesthesia.
Number of the patients with changed intraocular pressure
Time frame: One month
