Abstract

The purpose of the study was to assess the impact of microkinesitherapy treatment on intraocular pressure in patients with glaucoma. The study included a group of 32 patients (21 women and 11 men) from the Glaucoma Outpatient Clinic at Dr Alfred Sokołowski Specialist Hospital in Walbrzych. Patients were divided into two groups: an experimental group that received microkinesitherapy, and a control (placebo) group. In all subjects, two measurements of intraocular pressure were made using the AIR PUFF method. The data analysis did not show statistically significant changes in both groups (p<0.13 vs. p<0.08). In the experimental group, a decrease in mean pressure values was observed, while in the control group, an increase in mean pressure values of intraocular pressure was observed. The results obtained in the present study show that the aforesaid novel therapeutic method has the potential to reduce intraocular pressure, but it cannot unambiguously be stated that it offers an alternative approach to treat glaucoma.

微动疗法降低青光眼患者眼压的疗效评价

本研究的目的是评估微动疗法对青光眼患者眼压的影响。该研究包括来自Dr Alfred Sokołowski Walbrzych专科医院青光眼门诊的32名患者(21名女性和11名男性)。患者被分为两组:实验组接受微运动疗法，对照组(安慰剂)。在所有受试者中，使用AIR PUFF方法进行了两次眼压测量。数据分析显示两组差异无统计学意义(p<0.13 vs. p<0.08)。实验组平均眼压值下降，对照组平均眼压值升高。本研究结果表明，上述新型治疗方法具有降低眼压的潜力，但不能明确地说它是治疗青光眼的另一种方法。
