Comparative Study of Intraocular Pressure Measured by Non-Contact and Goldmann Applanation Tonometer and their Correlation with Corneal Thickness in a General Population
Abstract:To compare the intraocular pressure (IOP) measured by Non-Contact tonometer (NCT) and Goldmann Applanation tonometer (GAT) and their correlation with central corneal thickness (CCT) as well as the reliability of each tonometer. Methods: 500 patients (1000 eyes) attending the ophthalmology OPD aged 18 years and above were taken up for the study. Patients with anterior and posterior segment pathologies like corneal ulcer, leukoma, staphyloma, corneal lacerations, ectatic corneal conditions, corneal dystrophies,… Show more
