PURPOSE: To compare pulsatile ocular blood flow measurements in untreated ocular hypertensive (OHT) subjects and primary open,angle glaucoma (POAG) patients.DESIGN: A prospective observational study in an institutional setting. 0 METHODS: A total of 97 subjects were recruited to the study (50 ocular hypertensives, 24 glaucoma patients, and 23 normal subjects)."High-risk" OHT had intraocular pressure (IOP) > 25 mm Hg; "low-risk" OHT had IOP :5 25 mm Hg. Pulsatile ocular blood flow (POBF) measurements were made with a pneumotonometer in sitting, standing, and supine positions. Intraocular pressure was measured with Goldmann tonometry. Twenty-six patients were started on topical treatment to reduce intraocular pressure, and the measurements were repeated at a review visit.RESULTS: Untreated POAG patients and high-risk OHT had reduced POBF (P
