Comparison of IOP obtained in different kind of eyes with contact and no contact tonometers
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study is to analyze and compare the intraocular pressure (IOP) values measured in three different kinds of participants such as healthy subjects (HS), keratoconus patients (KP), and those who underwent myopic photorefractive ...

A large multi-ethnic genome-wide association study identifies novel genetic loci for intraocular pressure. [PDF]
Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is a major risk factor for glaucoma, a leading cause of blindness. IOP heritability has been estimated to up to 67%, and to date only 11 IOP loci have been reported, accounting for 1.5% of IOP variability.

Coupled Biomechanical Response of the Cornea Assessed by Non-Contact Tonometry. A Simulation Study [PDF]
The mechanical response of the cornea subjected to a non-contact air-jet tonometry diagnostic test represents an interplay between its geometry, the corneal material behavior and the loading.

Rapid and Accurate Pressure Sensing Device for Direct Measurement of Intraocular Pressure. [PDF]
PurposeIntraocular pressure (IOP) is the primary modifiable risk factor for glaucoma. Current devices measure IOP via the dynamic response of the healthy cornea and do not provide the accurate IOP measurements for patients with altered corneal ...

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 ...

Ocular tonometry in critically ill patients and their behaviour
Abstract Introduction The study of the post-mortem interval is an important element in the investigation of criminal acts. It is also one of the most difficult variables to quantify and establish. Various cadaveric phenomena are used to assess it, some of which are ocular, such as intraocular pressure.

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

Different methods for measuring intraocular pressure [PDF]
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.
