30
Q

Tonometry

A

Measures IOP by determining the resistance of the cornea to indentation

31
Q

Applanation

A

special probe used to flatten part of the cornea to measure eye pressure and a microscope called a “slit lamp” to examine the eye to determine the amt of pressure needed to displace IO fluid

uses a plunger to indent cornea. Pressure in eye determined by measuring how much the cornea is indented by a given wt

33
Q

Electric tonometry

A

small electric probe placed directly on cornea and gives digital readout of IOP

34
Q

pneumotonometry

A

noncontact method that does not touch the eye but uses a puff of air to flatten the cornea
