巩膜外静脉压（EVP）是眼内压（IOP）的重要决定因素，可以使用各种技术进行测量。它已经通过估计将巩膜外静脉压缩到预定终点所需的压力来非侵入性地测量。然而，缺乏客观的终点使EVP在人类的测量不确定，和广泛的平均EVP已在文献中报道。我们回顾了EVP的生理调节及其在青光眼治疗中的作用的证据，已用于测量EVP的技术和客观测量的必要性，以及EVP的报告值。我们还回顾了最近的进展，发展一个客观的技术EVP测量。(C)2011爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
Episcleral venous pressure (EVP) is an important determinant of intraocular pressure (IOP) and can be measured by using various techniques. It has been measured non-invasively by estimating the pressure required to compress an episcleral vein to a predetermined endpoint. However, the lack of objective endpoints makes EVP measurement in humans uncertain, and a wide range of mean EVP has been reported in the literature. We review the evidence for physiologic regulation of EVP and its role in glaucoma therapy, techniques that have been used to measure EVP and the need for objective measurements, and reported values for EVP. We also review recent progress toward developing an objective technique for EVP measurement. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
