Özet

The objective of this study was to evaluate and compare the IOP values in the sitting and supine positions in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PXG) patients. We also investigated possible relationships between the level of visual field damage and postural IOP change.
