Özet
This study aims to determine the intraocular pressure (IOP) of healthy Turkish Eastern Anatolian Red (EAR) cattle eyes using the iCare (R) Rebound Tonometer (RT). In addition, we aimed to evaluate whether there is a difference in the IOP values depending for the left or right eyes, time of day, gender, and age of animals. The research was carried out on 42 EAR cattle. The cattle were divided into 3 groups, group I (7 male, 7 female, n=14), group II (7 male, 7 female, n=14), and group III (7 male, 7 female, n=14) 6, 12, 24 months old, respectively. Measurements were performed, in the morning (6:00 a.m.), in the noon, and the evening (6:00 p.m.). The average IOP values for groups I, II and III was 24.51 +/- 0.91 mm Hg (P=0.520), 24.23 +/- 0.87 mm Hg (P=0.621) and 23.98 +/- 0.82 mmHg (P=0.772). According to the findings of this research for the values, the IOP of EAR cattle using the RT no statistically significant differences between right and left eyes, time of day, gender, and age were found for any of the results (P>0.05). In this study, the IOP reference value for EAR cattle was determined as 24.24 +/- 0.54 mm Hg using RT, regardless of any variable. In addition, this study is the first research article in which the intraocular pressure in Turkish Eastern Anatolian Red cattle was measured by the iCare (R) Rebound Tonometer.
