PURPOSE: To investigate the association of diurnal blood pressure (BP) and other factors with the intraocular pressure (IOP)-related 24-hour contact lens sensor (CLS) profile of patients with untreated glaucoma. METHODS: The prospective study included 82 patients with untreated normal-tension glaucoma. CLS measurements and ambulatory BP monitoring were performed simultaneously for 24 hours. The association between the mean arterial pressure (MAP) and CLS profile was examined for the daytime and nocturnal periods using linear regression analysis. The associations between other factors and the CLS profile were also examined. RESULTS: Multivariate analysis of data from 63 eligible patients showed that higher average MAPs were significantly associated with larger average nocturnal CLS values (β coefficient = 0.273; P = 0.023); a larger increase in the last CLS value (β coefficient = 0.366; P = 0.003); larger standard deviations (SDs) of CLS values for the daytime, nocturnal, and 24-hour periods (β coefficient = 0.407, 0.293, and 0.375; P < 0.001, P = 0.032 and 0.002, respectively); and higher average ocular pulse frequencies for the daytime, nocturnal, and 24-hour periods (β coefficient = 0.268, 0.380, and 0.403; P = 0.029, 0.002, and 0.001, respectively). Thicker subfoveal choroids and shorter axial length were significantly associated with larger SDs and larger average CLS values, respectively. Smaller anterior chamber volume and lower corneal hysteresis were associated with larger SDs or larger average ocular pulse amplitude. CONCLUSIONS: Ambulatory BP and several ocular parameters were significantly associated with various parameters of the 24-hour CLS profile. TRANSLATIONAL RELEVANCE: Ambulatory BP and ocular parameters may be modifiers of the 24-hour IOP-related profile of CLS.
