Intraocular Pressure Measurement after Penetrating Keratoplasty
Assessing the intraocular pressure is a difficult but crucial task in the follow-up of patients that have undergone penetrating keratoplasty. Early recognition of elevated intraocular pressure and/or glaucoma and establishment of the appropriate ...

Intraocular pressure monitoring by rebound tonometry in children with myopia
Background/Purpose: Topical atropine treatment is generally accepted to retard the progression of myopia, but it is associated with side effects such as photophobia and elevation of intraocular pressure (IOP). IOP measurements in children are challenging.

Corneal astigmatism in applanation tonometry [PDF]
This short study aims at quantitatively correlating scale readings of the Goldmann tonometer to corneal curvatures in one and the same eye.A total of 30 eyes of 21 adult patients who presented themselves in clinical practice for routine examination were arbitrarily selected.

Accuracy of Schiotz Tonometry in Measuring the Intraocular Pressure After Corneal Refractive Surgery
Purpose: To test the accuracy of Schiotz tonometry (ST) in patients that underwent photorefractive keratectomy (PRK). Methods: 175 eyes previously treated with PRK for myopia, myopic astigmatism or mixed astigmatism, with a mean preoperative spherical ...

Reutilization of disposable rebound tonometer probes: Risk or return?
Purpose: An advantage of rebound tonometry (RT) is its ease of use so that it can also be operated by health care technicians. However, the cost of the disposable measuring probes is high and their reuse carries the risk of infection.
