Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Measure the effective concentration (EC 50) of sevoflurane causing no movement during IOP measurement in 50% of the study population.Timepoint: After 4 minutes of maintenance of the predetermined end tidal sevoflurane concentration
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Adverse effects like laryngospasm, bradycardia, breath holding, desaturation with SpO2 less than 92%Timepoint: at the time of attempting IOP measurement;Degree of variation in IOP measured at baseline (just after induction) and at predetermined sevoflurane concentrationTimepoint: baseline (just after induction) and at 4 minutes of maintenance of the predetermined sevoflurane concentration;Measure the effective concentration (EC 95) of sevoflurane causing no movement during IOP measurement in 95% of the study populationTimepoint: After 4 minutes of maintenance of the predetermined end tidal sevoflurane concentration
