Ocular Pulse Amplitude in Healthy Subjects as Measured by Dynamic Contour Tonometry [PDF]
To test whether dynamic contour tonometry yields ocular pulse amplitude (OPA) measurements that are independent of corneal thickness and curvature, and to assess variables of observer agreement.In a multivariate cluster analysis on 223 eyes, the relationship between central corneal thickness, corneal curvature, axial length, anterior chamber depth ...

Review on Dynamic Contour Tonometry and Ocular Pulse Amplitude [PDF]
Intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement is the cornerstone of the management of glaucoma patients. The gold standard for assessing IOP is Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT). Recently, the dynamic contour tonometer (DCT) has become available. While both devices provide reliable IOP measurements, the results are not interchangeable.

A Novel Ocular Tonometry Task Trainer
The measurement of intraocular pressure via ocular tonometry is a skill necessary for the evaluation of emergency department patients with ocular complaints. Accurate results inform the use of time-sensitive medications or invasive procedures. We sought to develop and evaluate an affordable, realistic, and reproducible task trainer to allow Emergency ...

Possibilities of monitoring intraocular pressure using a transpalpebral scleral tonometry in cases of corneal and ocular surface pathology [PDF]
Cornea and ocular surface specialists need a form of tonometry for those cases where it is not possible to use Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) on the cornea. There are many situations in which the condition of the cornea prevents adequate monitoring

Effects of Exercise on Ocular Parameters and Oxidative Stress Biomarkers in Saliva and Tear Fluid of Horses. [PDF]
Submaximal exercise induced measurable oxidative responses in saliva and tear fluid of horses, while ocular parameters remained largely stable except for a mild reduction in tear secretion. Saliva and tear fluid may serve as practical, minimally invasive matrices for monitoring exercise‐associated physiological and oxidative responses in horses ...
