Purpose: Diurnal variation in intraocular pressure (IOP) is well recognized, yet important decisions in glaucoma management are frequently made after 1 or 2 IOP measurements. Twenty-four-hour monitoring of IOP may identify IOP variation and spikes. This study determined the value of 24-hour IOP monitoring in routine clinical practice.Methods: Data were acquired retrospectively from case notes of 29 glaucoma patients sequentially admitted for 24-hour IOP monitoring while taking their established antiglaucoma therapy.Results: While there was no difference between the mean clinic (office) and mean 24-hour IOP measurements, the peak IOP during 24-hour monitoring was on average 4.9 mm Hg higher than the peak clinic IOP (P
