Pressure phosphene tonometry versus Goldmann applanation tonometry for measuring intraocular pressure before and after LASIK.
PURPOSE To compare pressure phosphene tonometry with Goldmann applanation tonometry for measuring intraocular pressure (IOP) before and after LASIK. METHODS Forty-three (18 men and 25 women) consecutive healthy patients underwent complete pre- and postoperative LASIK ophthalmologic assessments including manifest and cycloplegic refraction, keratometry, and central corneal thickness. Three rep...
متن کاملGoldmann applanation tonometry in the conscious rat.
PURPOSE To determine whether the Goldmann applanation tonometer can be modified to measure intraocular pressure (IOP) in the conscious rat. METHODS In anesthetized rats Goldmann tonometers were tested that had reduced biprism angles in the applanating tips and reduced weights in the tonometer body from those used in humans and species with similar size eyes. Tonometers with tips with biprism ...
متن کاملComparison Between Dynamic Contour Tonometry and Goldmann Applanation Tonometry
PURPOSE To compare the intraocular pressures (IOPs) measured by dynamic contour tonometry (DCT) and Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT), and to investigate the association of IOPs on eyes of varying central corneal thickness (CCT). METHODS In this prospective study, 451 eyes of 233 subjects were enrolled. IOPs were measured by GAT and DCT. CCT was measured three times and the average was cal...
متن کاملGoldmann applanation tonometry versus i-care rebound tonometry
T he main purpose of my study was to compare the i-care tonometer to the Goldmann in terms of accuracy. Obviously when it comes to measuring IOP, accuracy is the most important aspect of any method of tonometry. However, there are other things to consider... patient comfort, repeatability (both inter and intra-practitioner) and who can actually use the device. So not only did I record the IOP r...
متن کاملComparison of handheld rebound tonometry with Goldmann applanation tonometry in children with glaucoma: a cohort study
OBJECTIVE To test agreement of two methods to measure intraocular pressure (IOP): rebound tonometry (RBT) and gold standard Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) in children with glaucoma. DESIGN Observational prospective cohort study. SETTING Tertiary paediatric glaucoma clinic at a single centre. PARTICIPANTS 102 individuals attending a paediatric glaucoma clinic, mean (SD) age 11.85 (3....
