Clinical comparison of Pulsair non-contact tonometer and Goldmann applanation tonometer in Indian population.
INTRODUCTION Goldmann applanation tonometer (GAT) is the gold standard for Intraocular Pressure (IOP) measurement but has disadvantage of being contact device and problems with portability. The aim of the study was to compare the Keeler's Pulsair noncontact tonometer (NCT) with GAT in Indian Population. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty-one subjects were screened from a Glaucoma clinic of a tertia...
متن کاملClinical comparison of the Keeler Pulsair 3000 with Goldmann applanation tonometry.
AIM To confirm the accuracy of the Pulsair 3000 before introducing the instrument into clinical practice. METHOD A masked study by two experienced tonometrists comparing the mean of the Goldmann intraocular pressure (IOP) readings against the Pulsair 3000 reading (average of four puffs). Results of 150 eyes were compared with an IOP range of 10 mm Hg-44 mm Hg. RESULTS Correlation between th...
متن کاملcomparison of intraocular pressure measurement with the noncontact pulsair 3000 tonometer and goldmann applanation tonometer
purpose: to compare intraocular pressure (iop) measurement with pulsair non-contact tonometer and goldmann applanation tonometer (gat). methods: in this cross-sectional study, during a complete ophthalmologic examination, each patient underwent pulsair tonometry three times at 5 minutes intervals and then goldmann tonometry at the same intervals. mean iop values were measured and analyzed. resu...
متن کاملIntra-Ocular Pressure Measurements by Canon TX-F Pulsair Tonometer and Goldmann Applanation Tonometer
Background: To analyze the limits of agreement for the intraand inter-session measurements of intra-ocular pressure as measured by the Goldmann applanation tonometer and the Canon TX-F noncontact pulsair tonometer Methods: For this cross sectional study, 138 eyes of 138 cases of age > 16 years with no evidence of glaucomatous changes were recruited. Cases with astigmatism ≥ ±3.0 Diopters, corne...
متن کاملNon-contact tonometry in the postoperative eye.
The Keeler Pulsair non-contact tonometer was compared with the Goldmann applanation tonometer in a series of 48 eyes after operation. A correlation coefficient of 0.92 (p less than 0.001) was found between the two instruments, with the Pulsair having a statistically significant tendency to overread the Goldmann slightly in this situation. The Pulsair was, however, shown to be effective in the i...
