29
Nystagmus
Involuntary, rhythmical, repeated oscillations of one or both eyes
30
Tonometry
Measures IOP by determining the resistance of the cornea to indentation
31
Applanation
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
32
Schiotz Tonometer
uses a plunger to indent cornea. Pressure in eye determined by measuring how much the cornea is indented by a given wt
33
Electric tonometry
small electric probe placed directly on cornea and gives digital readout of IOP
34
pneumotonometry
noncontact method that does not touch the eye but uses a puff of air to flatten the cornea
35
Corneal Staining
place Fluorescein dye into conjuctival sac. | non-intact areas stain a bright green color d/t dye accumulation in divor
36
What does corneal staining help detect?
Diabetic retinopathy, Macular Degeneration, Intraocular tumors
