Evaluation of Intraocular Pressure Changes with Topical Dexamethasone 0.1%, Prednisolone 1% and Difluprednate 0.05% Postcataract Surgery- A Randomised Clinical Trial [PDF]
Introduction: Topical corticosteroids are most commonly used for the control of postoperative inflammation after cataract surgery. Topical steroids may cause increase in Intraocular Pressure (IOP) which, if left untreated may lead to progressive ...

Intraocular Pressure Measurement after Penetrating Keratoplasty
Assessing the intraocular pressure is a difficult but crucial task in the follow-up of patients that have undergone penetrating keratoplasty. Early recognition of elevated intraocular pressure and/or glaucoma and establishment of the appropriate ...

Initial experience in self-monitoring of intraocular pressure. [PDF]
Background/aims: Diurnal variation in intraocular pressure (IOP) is a routine assessment in glaucoma management. Providing patients the opportunity to perform self-tonometry might empower them and free hospital resource.

Comparison of dynamic contour tonometry and noncontact tonometry in ocular hypertension and glaucoma [PDF]
To assess the agreement in the measurement of intraocular pressure obtained by dynamic contour tonometer (DCT) and noncontact tonometer (NCT) in patients with glaucoma and ocular hypertension, to investigate the effect of corneal thickness on pressure readings by both instruments, and to assess the reproducibility of dynamic contour tonometer.NCT and ...

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.

Feeling the pressure: a cross-sectional study exploring feasibility of a healthcare Pop-Up for intraocular pressure measurements in shopping centres in England [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: To test the hypothesis that a shopping centre Pop-Up health check combining an intraocular pressure (IOP) check with a general health check (blood pressure (BP)) is more readily accepted by the general public than an IOP check only.

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.
