Reutilization of disposable rebound tonometer probes: Risk or return?

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2023
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.

Different methods for measuring intraocular pressure [PDF]

Halo 194, 2019
Tonometry is a method for measuring intraocular pressure (IOP). Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) represents a golden standard for measuring IOP. The measurement is conducted by measuring the force needed to straighten out a certain area of the cornea.
