Popis: Peculiar psychic reactivity of glaucomatous patients detected clinically and widely treated in the literature, has led us to study the behaviour of intraocular pressure in normal and glaucomatous subjects when submitted to various stresses. The data obtained show that prolonged stress increases intraocular pressure in normal subjects, unlike shorter stress which only causes an increase of intraocular pressure in glaucomatous patients. The possible genesis of the phenomenon is discussed.
