Number of eyes that had an increase (and the extent to which it increased), decrease or no change following induction with tiletamine-zolazepam (n = 20 dogs), or propofol (n = 20 dogs) and mean ± SD of the delta in intraocular pressure between baseline and immediately following anesthetic induction.
