A patient's intraocular pressures are reported as follows:

Right Eye = 16 mm Left Eye = 12 mm

How should these findings be interpreted?

• The patient has normal IOPs; both measurements fall within the normal IOP range.

• The patient has abnormal IOPs; both IOP measurements fall outside of normal IOP range.

• A pathology should be ruled out; while both IOP readings are within normal IOP range, they exceed the allowable difference of 2 mm.

Findings shown on EOM examination are shown. What would be the correct interpretation of these findings?

• Normal duction test results

• Limitation of left lateral rectus on duction testing

• Limitation of right lateral rectus on duction testing

• Normal version testing results
