Abstract |
Chloral hydrate, a good hypnotic agent, can be used as a substitute for general anesthesia if the ocular examination is complicated by poor patient cooperation in pediatric ophthalmology. We studied the change of the intraocular pressure in rabbits with rectally administered chloral hydrate. We found that chloral hydrate sedation had no effect on intraocular pressure. |
