Abstract
The AIM of the study was to detect factors influencing on the intraocular pressure fluctuation amplitude in patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome. Matherial and methods. 240 eyes of 120 patients with cataract and pseudoexfoliation syndrome aged 54-84 were examined. Maklakov tonometry was used. Results. It was detected, that the value of intraocular pressure peaks and fluctuation amplitude depends significantly on the initial intraocular pressure level, local factors (stage of pseudoexfoliation syndrome, thickness of the lens) and systemic cardiovascular pathology.
