摘      要：Purpose: To determine if there is an influence of the Water Drinking Test (WDT) on central corneal thickness (CCT) due to the sudden change of osmolarity since an increase on CCT could lead to a false higher IOP reading on applanation tonometry. Methods: 38 glaucomatous or glaucomatous suspect patients without ocular hypotensive medication were submitted to WDT. CCT was measured by ultrasound pachymetry before and
