Clinical alert: damage to Goldmann applanation tonometer tips [PDF]
hen Goldmann first presentedhis new applanation tonometerin 1955, he emphasized that cross-infection by corneal contact with themethylmethacrylate-covered biprismmight occur and that appropriate dis-infection should be carried out (Gold-mann 1955).Schmidt & Lebek 1971 recom-mended soaking the tip in 5% for-maldehyde as the safest procedurefor the tip ...

Comparison of Diaton transpalpebral tonometer with applanation tonometry in keratoconus [PDF]
AIM: To investigate the added value of using a Diaton transpalpebral tonometer (DT) to measure IOP in keratoconus. Most type of tonometers use corneal applanation or biomechanical resistance to measure intraocular pressure (IOP); however, these factors ...

Comparison of the ICare® rebound tonometer with the Goldmann tonometer in a normal population [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of measurement of intraocular pressure (IOP) using a new induction/impact rebound tonometer (ICare) in comparison with the Goldmann applanation tonometer (AT).

Intraocular pressure in a cohort of healthy Eastern European schoolchildren: variations in method and corneal thickness [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Intraocular pressure (IOP) in the developing eye of a child is not always easy to measure and there is no technique that is known to be the most accurate for the young eye. Measurements are needed on many cohorts of children with different

Dynamic contour tonometry versus Goldmann applanation tonometry: challenging the gold standard [PDF]
The accurate measurement of intraocular pressure (IOP) is fundamental to almost any ophthalmic examination. Dynamic contour tonometry (DCT) was introduced 5 years ago as an entirely novel contact tonometry principle designed to measure IOP largely ...

Comparison of transpalpebral tonometer with Goldmann applanation tonometer
AbstractTranspalpebral tonometer, a new generation intraocular pressure (IOP) measuring instrument is nowadays used for self-tonometry. It is convenient and noninvasive and seems suitable for IOP measurement at home, as recommended by several authors.

Feeling the pressure: a cross-sectional study exploring feasibility of a healthcare Pop-Up for intraocular pressure measurements in shopping centres in England [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: To test the hypothesis that a shopping centre Pop-Up health check combining an intraocular pressure (IOP) check with a general health check (blood pressure (BP)) is more readily accepted by the general public than an IOP check only.
