Intraocular pressure is 16 mm Hg and helps to maintain the shape of the eyeball. Intraocular pressure is maintained by a jelly-like substance, called the vitreous humor, which is located in the posterior cavity of the eye. According to the eyeball's structure it appears in this order: cornea, anterior cavity, pupil, iris, lens, posterior cavity (containing vitreous humor).

What is intraocular pressure?
ntraocular pressure (IOP) is the fluid pressure of the aqueous humor inside the eye. In ophthalmology, tonometry is the measurement eye care professionals use to determine the fluid pressure inside the eye. IOP is an important aspect in the evaluation of patients with glaucoma. Most tonometers are calibrated to measure pressure in millimeters of mercury (mmHg).Physiology and measurementIntraocular pressure is mainly determined by the coupling of the production of aqueous humor and the drainage of aqueous humor mainly through the trabecular meshwork located in the anterior chamber angle. Intraocular pressure is measured with a tonometer.Influencing factorsIntraocular pressure measurement is also influenced by corneal thickness and rigidity.
