Abstract
Objective: ToStudy the effect of isometric handgrip exercise test on Intra ocular pressure in young adults Method: Healthy young male adults in the age group of 18-22 years were selected among MBBS phase I students of a Medical college .Sample size was 40. Heart rate and IOP were recorded at rest and after isometric handgriptest Results: Right eye IOP has decreased significantly from resting 16.28±1.55 to 9.30±1.79( p<0.001) immediately after handgripexercise IOP Left eye IOP has decreased significantly from resting 16.15±1.69 to 13.04±1.19 (p<0.001)immediately after handgrip exercise IOP Conclusion: Isometric handgripexercise lowers IOP which were significant. Hence may prove useful in normotensive glaucomatous patients
