Intraocular pressure measurement after penetrating keratoplasty: minified Goldmann applanation tonometer, pneumatonometer, and Tono-Pen versus manometry.
The accuracy of intraocular pressure measurement with the minified Goldmann applanation tonometer, the pneumatonometer, and the Tono-Pen tonometer were compared in post-mortem human eyes which had undergone penetrating keratoplasty. Enucleated post-mortem human eyes underwent same sized (7.75 mm) or 0.5 mm oversized (8.25 mm) autologous penetrating keratoplasty. Intraocular pressure was then se...
متن کاملClinical comparison of the Icare tonometer and Goldmann applanation tonometry.
PURPOSE To compare a new method of intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement, using the Icare tonometer, with Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT). PATIENTS AND METHODS Two observers obtained IOP readings in 292 eyes (143 right and 149 left) of 153 subjects, using the Icare without topical anesthetic. A GAT reading was subsequently obtained by a consultant ophthalmologist, without the knowledge ...
متن کاملGoldmann Tonometer Prism with an Optimized Error Correcting Applanation Surface
PURPOSE We evaluate solutions for an applanating surface modification to the Goldmann tonometer prism, which substantially negates the errors due to patient variability in biomechanics. METHODS A modified Goldmann or correcting applanation tonometry surface (CATS) prism is presented which was optimized to minimize the intraocular pressure (IOP) error due to corneal thickness, stiffness, curva...
متن کاملComparison of the iCare rebound tonometer and the Goldmann applanation tonometer
Tonometry is a fundamental procedure in routine ophthalmologic examination. Although regarded as the reference standard, the Goldmann applanation tonometer (GAT) has its limitations. A new portable alternative to the GAT is the iCare rebound tonometer (RT). The aim of the present study was to compare the intraocular pressure (IOP) results obtained using the RT and GAT and then correlate the res...
متن کاملComparison of IOPen rebound tonometer with Goldmann applanation tonometer at different IOP levels.
AIM To compare the accuracy of IOPen rebound tonometer with Goldmann applanation tonometer (GAT) in individuals with low, normal and high intraocular pressure (IOP) and to evaluate the effect of central corneal thickness (CCT) on IOP measurements. METHODS This cross-sectional study consisted of 159 participants. IOP of one eye of each subject was measured consecutively with IOPen and GAT. The...
