Im just wondering something
If you are like really nervous when you take your eye pressure test at the eye doctor, like your heart is beating faster than it usually does because you are tense about the test, will that make your pressure readings higher than it should be? And if it does make it higher,is it a significant increase in the pressure number or is it just by a number or two?
Answer：
no studies anywhere (that i know about) have ever suggested that increased heart rate/pressure can affect an intraocular pressure reading.
