Abstract
The object of this study was to analyze the effects of exercise on intraocular pressure, blood pressure, and pulse rate. This study was performed in 60 eyes of 30 patients. The intraocular pressure, blood pressure, and pulse rate were taken before exercise, and after exercise for 5 minutes. The change of the intraocular pressure and blood pressure before and after exercise were compared using the t-test. The results of analysis were summarized as follows; 1. The mean of systolic blood pressure was 118.2 +/- 8.2 mmHg before exercise, 145.2 +/- 11.5mmHg after exercise. This change was statistically significant. 2. The mean of diastolic blood pressure was 77 +/- 6.1 mmHg before exercise, 90 +/- 8.3mmHg after exercise. This change was statistically significant. 3. The mean of pulse rate was 73 +/- 11.8/min. before exercise 103.3 +/- 14.4/min. after exercise. This change was statistically significant. 4. The mean of intraocular pressure was 17.41 +/- 1.6 mmHg in right eye 17.80 +/- 1.6rnmHg in left eye respectively before exercise, and 17.34 +/- 1.6 mmHg in right eye 17.64 +/- 1.6 mmHg in left eye respectively after exercise. This change was statistically insignificant. With the above results, we found no clear association between change of intraocular pressure and change of blood pressure after exercise.
