Session information
- Title:
- 04_21 Measuring IOP Using Other Tonometry Methods
- Description:
- This session seeks to demonstrate the principles for measurement of IOP using tonometry methods other than Goldmann’s applanation tonometry. It offers an overview of commonly used tonometers in clinical practice, the potential of error with each type, and how these errors can be reduced.
