Utilizing the principles of Gagne’s nine events of instruction in the teaching of Goldmann Applanation Tonometry
Intraocular pressure measurement is important to identify people who are at risk of glaucoma. Goldmann Applanation Tonometry is considered the gold standard with regards to evaluating patients with glaucoma, a sight-threatening condition. The professional execution of this evaluation is critical in the reduction of associated complication rates. This article seeks to put forward a structured le...
متن کاملTwo-position measurement of intraocular pressure by PT100 noncontact tonometry in comparison with Goldmann tonometry
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the precision of intraocular pressure measurements obtained by PT100 noncontact tonometry in a handheld and slit lamp-mounted position in comparison with that of Goldmann applanation tonometry in healthy young adults. METHODS Sixty eyes from 60 subjects (30 men and 30 women) aged 22 ± 1 (range 20-24) years participated in this study. Tripli...
متن کاملApplanation tonometry: a comparison of the Perkins handheld and Goldmann slit lamp-mounted methods
PURPOSE To compare intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements, taken using Perkins applanation tonometry (PAT) and Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT). METHODS 100 eyes of 100 patients underwent Perkins and Goldmann applanation tonometry, with a randomized order of modality, performed by a masked observer. The right eye was measured, for all subjects, and the data used in statistical analysis. ...
متن کاملPressure 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 کاملCorrelation between diurnal variation of intraocular pressure, ocular pulse amplitude and corneal structural properties.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the fluctuation of intraocular pressure measurements obtained by Goldmann applanation tonometry, dynamic contour tonometry, and corneal compensated non-contact tonometry during office hours in glaucoma and healthy participants. This study also aims at correlating the intraocular pressure fluctuations with fluctuations of corneal hysteresis, cent...
