| flexible collodion | A mixture of camphor, castor oil, and collodion, or a mixture of castor oil, Canada turpentine, and collodion, used for the same purposes as collodion, but its film possesses the advantage, for certain conditions, of not contracting. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pressure, intraocular | The pressure created by the continual renewal of fluids within the eye. The intraocular pressure is increased in glaucoma. In acute angle-closure glaucoma, the intraocular pressure rises because the canal into which the fluid in the front part of the eye normally drains is suddenly blocked. In chronic glaucoma, there is a gradual imbalance between the production and removal (resorption) of the fluid in the back part of the eye (with supply exceeding demand). (12 Dec 1998) |
| intraocular | <anatomy> Within the eye. (18 Nov 1997) |
| intraocular fluid | <physiology> A transparent liquid contained in the anterior and posterior chambers of the eye, produced by the ciliary process it passes to the venous system via the canal of Schlemm. (27 Sep 1997) |
| intraocular implant | A plastic lens placed in the anterior or posterior chamber of the eye to substitute for the lens removed in cataract extraction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intraocular neuritis | Inflammation of the retinal portion of the optic nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intraocular part of optic nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The part of the optic nerve within the eye; it is divided into intralaminar, postlaminar, and prelaminar parts. Synonym: pars intraocularis nervi optici. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intraocular pressure | <ophthalmology> The pressure the fluid (vitreous) contained within the eye, exerts on the globe (lining of the eyeball). Increased intraocular pressure is a feature of glaucoma. (27 Sep 1997) |
| intraocular pressure monitoring | <ophthalmology, technique> This is procedure which measures the pressure inside the eyes. This is a screening test for glaucoma. This test is performed by an ophthalmologist. (27 Sep 1997) |
| intraocular tension | The pressure within the eye. See: Intraocular pressure. (12 Dec 1998) |
| tension, intraocular | The pressure within the eye. (12 Dec 1998) |
| lenses, intraocular | Artificial implanted lenses. (12 Dec 1998) |
| achromatic lens | A compound lens made of two or more lens's having different indices of refraction, so correlated as to minimise chromatic aberration. (05 Mar 2000) |
