Review of literature has shown that the intraocular pressure (IOP) tends to be higher during winterin normal and glaucomatous eyes. This tendency is more manifest in the latter. Greater seasonal fluctuation inIOP is one of risk factors in glaucoma as it is associated with a more frequent deterioration in the visual field.Various theories are present to account for the higher IOP level in winter including: elevated catecholaminesin the serum, increased aqueous secretion secondary to elevated blood pressure, and decrease in aqueous outflow.Seasonal variation in IOP has to be take into account in the long-term management of glaucoma patients.
