Central corneal thickness and applanation tonometry.
after sub-Tenon anesthesia In their recent article, 1 Subbiah et al. noted that a rigid sub-Tenon cannula caused complications such as a retrobulbar hemorrhage, albeit rarely. The authors concluded that a ‘‘soft cannula’’ could be an ideal alternative for sub-Tenon injection in high-risk patients. We reported the same thing in our Sandwell technique, in which the soft plastic sheath of a Venflo...
متن کاملApplanation resonance tonometry for intraocular pressure measurement
3 Doubt is the beginning of wisdom. (René Descartes) 4 5 1 Abstract Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is one of the major risk factors for glaucoma. Since glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness, reliable methods for measuring the IOP are important. This doctoral dissertation presents a new method, applanation resonance tonometry (ART), for measurement of IOP. The method is based on resonanc...
متن کاملComparability and Influence of Central Corneal Thickness (CCT) on Measurements of Intraocular Pressure (IOP) by Goldmann Applanation Tonometry (GAT) and Non Contact Tonometry (NCT) in Different IOP Ranges
Aim : To compare IOP measurements using GAT and NCT in different IOP ranges (<10, ≥10-25 mm Hg and > 25 mm Hg) and evaluate the effect of CCT on IOP measurements by these techniques. Materials and Methods: IOP was measured by NCT followed by GAT in 188 eyes of 100 glaucoma patients attending glaucoma clinic at Chaithanya Eye Hospital , Trivandrum by a single observer. Mean of three consecutive ...
متن کاملThe influence of central corneal thickness and age on intraocular pressure measured by pneumotonometry, non-contact tonometry, the Tono-Pen XL, and Goldmann applanation tonometry.
AIMS To evaluate the influence of central corneal thickness (CCT) on intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements made with the Goldmann applanation tonometer (GAT), Tono-Pen XL, ocular blood flow tonograph (OBF), and Canon TX-10 non-contact tonometer (NCT). METHODS CCT was recorded for either eye (randomly selected) of each of 105 untreated patients with ocular hypertension and glaucoma attending...
متن کاملComparison of Goldmann applanation tonometry and Pascal dynamic contour tonometry in relation to central corneal thickness and corneal curvature
PURPOSE The aim of the study was to assess the influence of central corneal thickness (CCT) and corneal curvature in tonometry measurements taken by Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) and Pascal dynamic contour tonometry (DCT). METHODS This was a prospective study of 185 eyes from 97 subjects, attending outpatient ophthalmology appointments, who underwent intraocular pressure measurements b...
