Non-depolarizing neuromuscular blockers and the eye: a study of intraocular pressure. Pancuronium versus alcuronium. 1979

R George, and A Nursingh, and J W Downing, and N H Welsh

Intraocular pressure remained stable when either pancuronium or alcuronium was used to produce muscle relaxation, suggesting that alcuronium may be a reasonable alternative to pancuronium for routine surgery of the open eye, particularly in elderly patients with limited cardiac reserve.
