Changes in ophthalmic artery Doppler indices in hypertensive disorders during pregnancy.

Objectives: To compare the ophthalmic artery Doppler indices observed in women with singleton pregnancies complicated by hypertension and to correlate the indices observed in hypertensive pregnant women with those observed in healthy pregnant women.

Methods: Ophthalmic artery Doppler indices were compared between 30 women with mild preeclampsia, 30 women with severe preeclampsia, and 30 women with chronic hypertension at 20 to 40 weeks' gestation. The control group consisted of 289 normotensive pregnant women.

Doppler velocimetry of the ophthalmic artery: reproducibility of blood flow velocity measurements.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the interobserver reliability for measuring ophthalmic artery Doppler indices.

Methods: Healthy women (n = 30) were evaluated. The resistive index, pulsatility index, and peak ratio were determined by two independent observers who were blind to each other.

Doppler velocimetry of the ophthalmic artery in normal pregnancy: reference values.

Objective: This study aimed at analyzing the correlation between ophthalmic Doppler indices and gestational age (GA) in healthy patients with singleton pregnancies. Intraobserver reproducibility and right-to-left eye correlation were also evaluated.

Methods: Healthy pregnant women (n = 289) at 20 to 40 weeks' GA were evaluated.
