The purpose of this study was to determine reference interval intraocular pressure (IOP) values in 8 different species of companion birds. One hundred and nineteen companion birds (238 eyes) from a captive colony were examined: 21 pigeons (; 18%), 17 African grey parrots (; 14%), 22 common mynahs (; 18%), 24 cockatiels (; 20%), 12 zebra finches (; 10%), 9 budgerigars (; 8%), 6 domestic canaries (; 5%), and 8 ring-necked parakeets (; 7%). Intraocular pressure was measured by rebound tonometry (TonoVet) avoiding induced, undesired pressure on the head, neck, or eyes. Mean IOP values varied by species. Mean (± SD) IOP values determined for each species were pigeon (5.42 ± 2.06 mm Hg), African grey parrot (4.93 ± 1.91 mm Hg), common mynah (6.22 ± 2.04 mm Hg), cockatiel (5.08 ± 1.76 mm Hg), zebra finch (5.90 ± 2.11 mm Hg), budgerigar (5.88 ± 2.31mm Hg), canary (5.83 ± 1.60 mm Hg), and ring-necked parakeet (6.25 ± 1.75 mm Hg). No statistically significant differences were found in IOP values between right and left eyes for the species studied ( > .22), with the exception of the ring-necked parakeet ( = .001). The results of this study provide representative IOP values measured using rebound tonometry in 8 different species of companion birds.
本研究旨在确定 8 种不同伴侣鸟的眼内压（IOP）参考区间值。对一个圈养种群中的 119 只伴侣鸟（238 只眼）进行了检查：21 只鸽子（; 18%）、17 只非洲灰鹦鹉（; 14%）、22 只八哥（; 18%）、24 只鸡尾鹦鹉（; 20%）、12 只斑胸草雀（; 10%）、9 只虎皮鹦鹉（; 8%）、6 只金丝雀（; 5%）和 8 只环颈鹦鹉（; 7%）。通过回弹眼压计（TonoVet）测量眼内压，避免对头部、颈部或眼睛造成不必要的压力。不同物种的平均 IOP 值有所不同。确定的每种物种的平均（±SD）IOP 值分别为鸽子（5.42 ± 2.06mmHg）、非洲灰鹦鹉（4.93 ± 1.91mmHg）、八哥（6.22 ± 2.04mmHg）、鸡尾鹦鹉（5.08 ± 1.76mmHg）、斑胸草雀（5.90 ± 2.11mmHg）、虎皮鹦鹉（5.88 ± 2.31mmHg）、金丝雀（5.83 ± 1.60mmHg）和环颈鹦鹉（6.25 ± 1.75mmHg）。除环颈鹦鹉外（=.001），研究的物种左右眼的 IOP 值之间没有统计学上的显著差异（>.22）。本研究的结果提供了使用回弹眼压计在 8 种不同伴侣鸟中测量的代表性 IOP 值。
