Drug Discovery and Evaluation

1 O.1 Introduction

Ocular pharmacology shares many methods with other indications and treatment of other organs. Therefore, in many instances, the reader has to be referred to other sections, such as:

Nevertheless, ocular pharmacology is a special issue, which justifies a special chapter in this book.

2 O.2 Intraocular pressure

2.1 O.2.1 Acute measurement of intraocular pressure

2.1.1 PURPOSE AND RATIONALE

For evaluation of drugs, intraocular...
