Goldmann Tonometry and Corneal Biomechanics

Applied 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

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.

Comparison of Dynamic Contour Tonometry with Goldmann Applanation Tonometry

Investigative 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,

Intraocular pressure and ocular pulse amplitude using dynamic contour tonometry and contact lens tonometry

BMC Ophthalmology, 2004
Background The new Ocular Dynamic Contour Tonometer (DCT), investigational device supplied by SMT (Swiss Microtechnology AG, Switzerland) allows simultaneous recording of intraocular pressure (IOP) and ocular pulse amplitude (OPA). It was the aim of this

Evaluation of the agreement and reliability of Transpalpebral Tonometers compared with Goldmann Applanation Tonometer – A systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Protocol

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2023
In 2020, the global prevalence of glaucoma was estimated to be 76 million and it was projected to increase to 111.8 million by 2040. Accurate intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement is imperative in glaucoma management since it is the only modifiable risk

Diagnostic clues of IOP pulsation on applanation tonometry in carotid-cavernous fistula patients

BMC Ophthalmology, 2022
Background Carotid-cavernous fistula (CCF) is an abnormal communication between the cavernous sinus and the carotid arterial system and exhibits typical symptoms of red eye, diplopia, blurred vision, headache, and murmur.

Comparison of Dynamic Contour Tonometry and Goldmann Applanation Tonometry

Journal of the Korean Ophthalmological Society, 2009
Purpose: To compare dynamic contour tonometry (DCT) and Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) and investigate the influence of central corneal thickness (CCT) onintraocular pressure. Methods: In a prospective study of 165 eyes with glaucoma (135 eyes), glaucoma suspect (14 eyes), and ocular hypertension (16 eyes), intraocularpressure was measured with ...
