Pascal, ICare and Goldmann applanation tonometry – a comparative study [PDF]

open access: bronzeActa Ophthalmologica, 2008
Abstract.Purpose:  To compare intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements by Pascal, ICare and Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT), to evaluate the effects of central corneal thickness (CCT) and curvature on IOP measurement and to estimate the intra‐observer variability.Methods:  A prospective, single‐centre study of 150 eyes with a wide range of ...

Comparison between standard Goldmann applanation prism and disposable applanation prism in tonometry [PDF]

open access: bronzeEye, 2004
Disposable devices are increasingly becoming the preferred choice where possible in contact medical equipment.To evaluate the accuracy of the disposable applanation tonometer head as a potential substitute to the standard Goldmann applanation head.The study was prospective.

Intraocular pressure in a cohort of healthy Eastern European schoolchildren: variations in method and corneal thickness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
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

Goldmann Tonometry and Corneal Biomechanics

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Glaucoma is the second cause of irreversible blindness in the world. Intraocular pressure (IOP) is a recognized major risk factor for the development and progression of glaucomatous damage. Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) is internationally accepted

Comparison of the ICare® rebound tonometer with the Goldmann tonometer in a normal population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
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).

Reutilization of disposable rebound tonometer probes: Risk or return?

open access: yesIndian 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.

Dynamic contour tonometry versus Goldmann applanation tonometry: challenging the gold standard [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
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 ...

On the Validity of the Imbert-Fick Law: Mathematical Modelling of Eye Pressure Measurement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
YesOphthalmologists rely on a device known as the Goldmann applanation tonometer to make intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements. It measures the force required to press a flat disc against the cornea to produce a flattened circular region of known ...

Comparison of Dynamic Contour Tonometry with Goldmann Applanation Tonometry

open access: yesInvestigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2004
The dynamic contour tonometer (DCT; Pascal tonometer) is a novel tonometer designed to measure intraocular pressure (IOP) independent of corneal properties. The purpose of this study was a comparison of the DCT with the Goldmann applanation tonometer (GAT) with respect to mean of IOP readings, the influence of ocular structural factors on IOP readings,
