2. Ocular tonometry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocular_tonometry

   Historically, non-contact tonometers were not considered to be an accurate way to measure IOP but instead a fast and simple way to screen for high IOP. However, modern non-contact tonometers have been shown to correlate well with Goldmann tonometry measurements and are particularly useful for measuring IOP in children and other non-compliant ...

3. Goldmann Applanation Tonometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goldmann_Applanation_Tonometer

   Theoretically, average corneal rigidity (taken as 520 μm for GAT) and the capillary attraction of the tear meniscus cancel each other out when the flattened area has the 3.06 mm diameter contact surface of the Goldmann prism, which is applied to the cornea using the Goldmann tonometer with a measurable amount of force from which the IOP is ...

4. Intraocular pressure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraocular_pressure

   A patient in front of a tonometer. Intraocular pressure (IOP) is the fluid pressure inside the eye. Tonometry is the method eye care professionals use to determine this. IOP is an important aspect in the evaluation of patients at risk of glaucoma. [1] Most tonometers are calibrated to measure pressure in millimeters of mercury .

6. Schiøtz tonometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schiøtz_tonometer

   The Schiotz tonometer consists of a curved footplate which is placed on the cornea of a supine patient. A weighted plunger attached to the footplate sinks into the cornea. A scale then gives a reading depending on how much the plunger sinks into the cornea, and a conversion table converts the scale reading into IOP measured in mmHg.

9. Imbert-Fick law - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imbert-Fick_law

   Armand Imbert (1850-1922) and Adolf Fick (1829-1901) both demonstrated, independently of each other, that in ocular tonometry the tension of the wall can be neutralized when the application of the tonometer produces a flat surface instead of a convex one, and the reading of the tonometer (P) then equals (T) the IOP," whence all forces cancel each other.
