Comparison of Dynamic Contour Tonometry with Goldmann Applanation Tonometry

open access: yesInvestigative Ophthalmology and 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,

COMPARISON OF SCHIÖTZ AND GOLDMANN TONOMETRY IN A POPULATION

Acta Ophthalmologica, 1972
Schiötz tonometers are still used widely for routine tonometry and glaucoma screening. Appreciation of the inaccuracy of impression tonometry has led to a general agreement that Schiötz tonometry should be supplemented by applanation tonometry. In a material of paired Schiötz and Goldmann measurements we found that about every fifth individual with an ...

Effect of central corneal thickness on Goldmann applanation tonometry measures—a different result with different pachymeters

open access: yesGraefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, 2007
Purpose: To assess whether the use of Orbscan pachymetry, as an alternative to ultrasound pachymetry, had an effect on the IOP-CCT relationship for Goldmann tonometry in normal human eyes.

Accuracy of Goldmann tonometry in clinical practice

Acta Ophthalmologica, 1993
Abstract The intra‐ and inter‐observer variability of Goldmann applanation tonometry was studied in 8 hospital tonometrists, 4 of whom received brief revision training in tonometer use. Intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements were obtained from 16 glaucoma patients. Over a series of four readings taken from individual eyes, intraocular pressure did not

Correction Factors for Goldmann Tonometry

Journal of Glaucoma, 2013
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the in vitro accuracy of correction factors in decreasing the error in the intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements obtained using the Goldmann Applanation Tonometer (GAT).Nineteen donor corneas, from individuals aged between 57 and 99 years (mean 75.7 years, standard deviation±11.4 years) were subjected to ...

Comparison of Proview phosphene tonometry with Goldmann applanation tonometry

Canadian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2006
To compare intraocular pressures obtained using a handheld pressure phosphene tonometer (PPT) (Proview, Bausch & Lomb Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Tampa, Fla.) with Goldmann applanation tonometry.Comparative case series of 30 randomly selected patients.The readings obtained with the pressure phosphene tonometer display a higher mean and a larger standard ...

Self-tonometry with the Ocuton S versus Goldmann tonometry

Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, 1999
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the acceptance and reproducibility of a new self-tonometer (Ocuton S) and to compare it with the Goldmann applanation tonometer.The Ocuton S was studied in 20 healthy volunteers and 100 patients. After detailed explanation to each individual and a number of test measurements, we studied the reproducibility and ...

Comparison of dynamic contour tonometry with Goldmann applanation tonometry in glaucoma practice

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, 2009
Abstract.Purpose:  To compare intraocular pressure (IOP) readings taken using dynamic contour tonometry (DCT) with IOP readings taken with Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) in eyes with glaucoma or ocular hypertension.Methods:  The present study included 100 eyes in 100 patients with glaucoma or ocular hypertension. After pachymetry DCT and GAT were

Comparison of Goldmann and Schiotz Tonometry in a Community

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1966
The Goldmann applanation tonometer, among clinical instruments presently available, may provide the most valid estimate of intraocular pressure in humans. Examination with this tonometer offers a promising method of collecting descriptive data on the frequency distribution of intraocular pressure.

Goldmann Applanation Tonometry without Fluorescein

Optometry and Vision Science, 1981
Abstract Recently, there have been several suggestions that Goldmann applanation tonometry can be performed without fluorescein. In order to determine the clinical efficacy of performing Goldmann applanation tonometry without fluorescein, 100 consecutive patients had applanation tonometry performed without fluorescein (Ophthetic only)
