  • Title: Effects of general anaesthesia on the intraocular pressure in man. Trichloroethylene in nitrous oxide and oxygen.
    Author: Al-Abrak MH, Samuel JR.
    Journal: Br J Ophthalmol; 1975 Feb; 59(2):107-10. PubMed ID: 1131344.
    Abstract:
    The effect of TCE on the intraocular pressure was investigated in eight patients under thiopentone nitrous oxide/oxygen anaesthesia, using a muscle relaxant (pancuronium bromide). Pulmonary ventilation was controlled and the end-tidal carbon dioxide was maintained at 5 per cent. In every patient the intraocular pressure was observed to rise as TCE was administered and then to return to the initial level when the administration of TCE ceased.
