“…For measuring IOP however, a clinical gold standard does exist in the form of Goldmann tonometry; although, as already mentioned, even Goldmann tonometry is in¯uenced by such factors as corneal thickness and scleral rigidity (Whitacre and Stein, 1993). A high correlation between Goldmann IOP measures and those from the OBF tonometer have previously been reported and range from r 0.53 (Lam et al, 1999), r 0.70 (Spraul et al, 1998) and r 0.95 (Yang et al, 2000). In contrast, the precision of all the OBF tonometer's outputs can be investigated by examining their reliability.…”
