Pulse Ocular Venous

Introduction

Pulses are various rapid fluctuations in blood pressure in the arteries and veins that serve as an indicator of the state of the cardiovascular system.

One of the types of pulse is the ocular venous pulse, which allows you to assess the condition of the vessels and veins of the eyeball and identify possible health problems.

The ophthalmic venous pulse consists of two phases: the first phase is weak and vague, the second phase is strong and distinct. The weak phase can last from 1 to 5 seconds, and the strong phase lasts from 0.25 to 0.75 seconds.

The normal pulse of the ophthalmic veins is 3 mmHg. Art. and lasts less than 1 second. If the pulse lasts more than 1.5 seconds or gets stronger, this may be a sign of increased pressure in the eye. Such cases can occur, for example, with chronic stress, physical activity or high blood pressure.

Causes of palpebral vein pulse may include:

- Exercise or brisk walking - Coughing or sneezing - Elevation - Increased blood pressure - Carbon monoxide poisoning - Insect bites or snake blood

Symptoms of ocular venous pulse also depend on the causes of its occurrence. These may include nausea, headache, decreased vision, dizziness, increased pressure inside the skull, and even seizures.

Doctors may use a variety of techniques to diagnose and treat cardiovascular disease, including Doppler ultrasound, computed tomography, and x-rays.
