Intraocular pressure is the tissue pressure within the eye, which is determined by the balance between the production and drainage of aqueous humor, the clear fluid inside the eye. Slight changes in eye pressure from one season to another â or even during the course of a day â are normal.n increase in blood pressure is called hypertension, and an increase in intraocular pressure is called ocular hypertension. An eye is considered to have ocular hypertension if intraocular pressure is consistently 21 mm Hg or higher.
