History and Clinical Validation of the PASCAL Dynamic Contour Tonometer

Will Goldmann applanation tonometry, the age old “gold standard” of intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement, be replaced with newer methods? One of the newer methods of IOP measurement is PASCAL dynamic contour tonometry (DCT). A review of the history, scientific principles, clinical validation and clinical utility of DCT is presented.

Comparison 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...

Dynamic contour tonometry versus Goldmann applanation tonometry: challenging the gold standard

Correlation between diurnal variation of intraocular pressure, ocular pulse amplitude and corneal structural properties.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the fluctuation of intraocular pressure measurements obtained by Goldmann applanation tonometry, dynamic contour tonometry, and corneal compensated non-contact tonometry during office hours in glaucoma and healthy participants. This study also aims at correlating the intraocular pressure fluctuations with fluctuations of corneal hysteresis, cent...
