The initial action of the nurse should be noting the time of the day the test was done. The result would depend largely on the time of the test and the position of the client during the test.

If it was done in the morning, it shows that there is no problem with the client’s intra-ocular pressure because normal IOP in the morning is between 10-21mmHg and higher. Moreover, a flat position could also result to increase eye pressure.
