Fitness level modulates intraocular pressure responses to strength exercises Amador García-Ramos, David Cárdenas, Beatriz Redondo, Jesús Vera, Raimundo Jiménez Current Eye Research, 43 (6), 740-746. doi:https://doi.org/10.1080/02713683.2018.1431289 ABSTRACT Purpose/Aim: The execution of strength exercises has demonstrated to increase the intraocular pressure (IOP) levels, and it may have a negative impact on the ocular health. We aimed to explore […]
Muscular strength is associated with higher intraocular pressure in physically active males. Jesús Vera, Raimundo Jiménez, Amador García-Ramos, David Cárdenas. Optometry and Vision Science. 95 (2), 143-149 doi:10.1097/OPX.0000000000001169 Abstract SIGNIFICANCE The positive association between intraocular pressure (IOP) and relative maximum force may have relevance for exercise recommendations when IOP is a concern. PURPOSE The relationship […]

A maximal incremental effort alters tear osmolarity depending on the fitness level in military helicopter pilots. Jesús Vera, Raimundo Jiménez, Iker Madinabeitia, Nerijus Masiulis, David Cárdenas. The Ocular Surface 15 (4), 795-801. doi:https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jtos.2017.08.001 Abstract Purpose Fitness level modulates the physiological responses to exercise for a variety of indices. While intense bouts of exercise have been […]
Simultaneous physical and mental effort alters visual function. Jesús Vera, Raimundo Jiménez, Jose Antonio García, David Cárdenas. Optometry and vision science 94 (8), 797-806. doi:10.1097/OPX.0000000000001105 Abstract PURPOSE Perceptual processing is sensitive to physiological changes. Thus, the homeostatic disturbances during and after exercise may alter the visual function. Here, we investigated the effect of simultaneous physical […]
Visual function, performance, and processing of basketball players versus sedentary individuals. Jesús Vera, Raimundo Jiménez, David Cárdenas, Beatriz Redondo, José Antonio García. Journal of Sport and Health Science 9 (6), 587-594. doi:https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jshs.2017.05.001 Abstract Background Athletes tend to have better visuo-motor performance than do sedentary individuals. However, several basic visual-function and perceptual parameters remain unexplored to date. […]
Intraocular pressure is sensitive to cumulative and instantaneous mental workload. Jesús Vera, Raimundo Jiménez, José Antonio García, David Cárdenas. Applied Ergonomics, 60, 313-319. doi:https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apergo.2016.12.011 Abstract We used a repeated-measures design to assess the impact of mental-task complexity on intraocular pressure (IOP). Fourteen participants performed three continuous 11-min blocks of a mental-workload task (3-back) and an […]
Driving time modulates accommodative response and intraocular pressure. Jesús Vera, Carolina Diaz-Piedra, Raimundo Jiménez, José M Morales, Andrés Catena, David Cardenas, Leandro L Di Stasi. Physiology & Behavior 164, 47-53. doi:https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physbeh.2016.05.043 Abstract Driving is a task mainly reliant on the visual system. Most of the time, while driving, our eyes are constantly focusing and refocusing […]
Optical quality and visual performance after cataract surgery with biaxial microincision intraocular lens implantation. Raimundo Jiménez, Almudena Valero, Joaquín Fernández, Rosario G Anera, José R Jiménez. Journal of Cataract & Refractive Surgery 42 (7), 1022-1028. doi:https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jcrs.2016.03.039 Purpose To evaluate the time course of the optical quality and visual performance with a microincision monofocal intraocular lens […]
Acute Intraocular Pressure Responses to Reading: The Influence of Body Position Jesús Vera, Beatriz Redondo, Rubén Molina, David Cárdenas and Raimundo Jiménez Journal of Glaucoma, Volume 29, Number 7, pp. 581-586(6) doi: https://doi.org/10.1097/IJG.0000000000001510 Abstract Précis: Greater intraocular pressure (IOP) values are observed when reading in the supine position in comparison with the sitting position, and thus, […]
