N2  - The reduction of acutely raised intraocular pressure prior to surgery  is often essential. Mannitol has been the primary hyperosmolar agent for  nearly a century and remains the gold standard for medical management  of intracranial hypertension. anaesthesiologists use intravenous  hypertonic saline for lowering intracranial pressure and over the last 25  years, HTS has become a progressively more common alternative to  mannitol.Well established systemic medications to reduce IOP rapidly  include acetazolamide either oral or intravenous, oral glycerol and  intravenous mannitol. Because of their contraindication profiles and  dangerous side effects, they are not always applicable to all patients
