aminocaproic acid and Intraocular Pressure

aminocaproic acid has been researched along with Intraocular Pressure in 6 studies

Aminocaproic Acid: An antifibrinolytic agent that acts by inhibiting plasminogen activators which have fibrinolytic properties.
6-aminohexanoic acid : An epsilon-amino acid comprising hexanoic acid carrying an amino substituent at position C-6. Used to control postoperative bleeding, and to treat overdose effects of the thrombolytic agents streptokinase and tissue plasminogen activator.

Intraocular Pressure: The pressure of the fluids in the eye.
