Ocular hypertension is the presence of elevated fluid pressure inside the eye (intraocular pressure), usually with no optic nerve damage or visual field loss. [1] [2]For most individuals, the normal range of intraocular pressure is between 10 mmHg and 21 mmHg. [3]
Amaurosis fugax is a temporary loss of vision that occurs in two conditions which cause a temporary reduction in ophthalmic artery pressure: orthostatic hypotension and positive acceleration. [ 5 ] Even complete occlusion of the ophthalmic artery may possibly leave the eye without symptoms, probably because of circulatory anastomoses [ 6 ]
Hypotony may occur either due to decreased production of aqueous humor or due to increased outflow. Hypotony has many causes including post-surgical wound leak from the eye, chronic inflammation within the eye including iridocyclitis, hypoperfusion, tractional ciliary body detachment or retinal detachment.

Abdominal pain, also known as a stomach ache, is a symptom associated with both non-serious and serious medical issues. Since the abdomen contains most of the body's vital organs, it can be an indicator of a wide variety of diseases.
Fever with abdominal pain may be a sign of an infection. Vomiting, while common in a self-limited gastroenteritis is a cause for concern if it persists more than 12 hours, and you can't keep any ...
The most common symptoms of IC/BPS are suprapubic pain, [10] urinary frequency, painful sexual intercourse, [11] and waking up from sleep to urinate. [12]In general, symptoms may include painful urination described as a burning sensation in the urethra during urination, pelvic pain that is worsened with the consumption of certain foods or drinks, urinary urgency, and pressure in the bladder or ...
When the onset is sudden, symptoms include an inability to urinate and lower abdominal pain. [1] When of gradual onset, symptoms may include loss of bladder control, mild lower abdominal pain, and a weak urine stream. [1] Those with long-term problems are at risk of urinary tract infections. [1]
Differences in pressure between the two eyes are often clinically significant, and potentially associated with certain types of glaucoma, as well as iritis or retinal detachment. Intraocular pressure may become elevated due to anatomical problems, inflammation of the eye, genetic factors, or as a side-effect from medication. Intraocular ...
