Many disorders of the orbit produce an increase in intraorbital pressure, which may result in the development of an orbital compartment syndrome and visual loss. Traditionally, orbital tension is assessed clinically by indirect means based on retrodisplacement of the globe. The authors describe their experience with the "slit-catheter" technique for direct tissue pressure measurement as applied to the orbit. The preliminary results indicate that normal orbital pressure ranges from 3.0 to 6.0 mm Hg. In patients with Graves' orbitopathy the values ranged from 7.0 to 15.0 mm Hg. The results suggest that the technique may have many exciting possibilities as a clinical research tool in orbital disease, and its use will result in better understanding of orbital compartment syndromes.
许多眼眶疾病会导致眶内压力升高，这可能会引发眼眶间隔综合征并导致视力丧失。传统上，眼眶张力是通过基于眼球后移的间接方法进行临床评估的。作者描述了他们将“裂隙导管”技术应用于眼眶直接组织压力测量的经验。初步结果表明，正常眼眶压力范围为3.0至6.0毫米汞柱。在格雷夫斯眼眶病患者中，数值范围为7.0至15.0毫米汞柱。结果表明，该技术作为眼眶疾病的临床研究工具可能有许多令人兴奋的可能性，其应用将有助于更好地理解眼眶间隔综合征。
