Abstract

Aims

To define parameters of autonomic nervous system activity in patients with normal tension glaucoma (NTG).

Methods

Ambulatory 24-h ECG (Lifecard CF) and 24-h blood pressure (BP) monitoring (SpaceLab 90207-30) were carried out in 54 patients with NTG (44 women, mean age 59.7) and 43 matched control subjects (34 women, mean age 57.0). Heart rate variability time and frequency domain parameters (low frequency (LF), high...
