Ocular Pulse Amplitude in Healthy Subjects as Measured by Dynamic Contour Tonometry [PDF]
Archives of Ophthalmology, 2006 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 ...

Increased Ocular Pulse Amplitude Associated with Unilateral Dysgenesis of the Orbital Roof
Case Reports in Ophthalmology, 2015 Introduction: Two patients (one with neurofibromatosis type 1) presented with unilateral ocular pulsation. Methods: A CT scan of the orbits revealed extensive dysgenesis of the orbital roof with herniation of the frontal lobe into the orbit in both cases.

Diagnostic accuracy of the iCare rebound tonometer compared to the Perkins applanation tonometer in assessing intraocular pressure in rural patients [PDF]
, 2015 Background: Vision health is recognized as a critical unmet need in North America. The ocular morbidity associated with glaucoma results from increased intraocular pressure (IOP) and early detection is crucial for the management of glaucoma.

24-h Efficacy of Glaucoma Treatment Options [PDF]
, 2016 Current management of glaucoma entails the medical, laser, or surgical reduction of intraocular pressure (IOP) to a predetermined level of target IOP, which is commensurate with either stability or delayed progression of visual loss.

Cost–benefit analysis of screening programme for diabetic retinopathy in Bulgaria
British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Aims Late‐diagnosed diabetic retinopathy (DR) is difficult and expensive to treat. Screening programmes can identify the disease early and reduce the costs of its future treatment. This study aims to analyse the cost–benefit of screening programmes for DR.
