Estimation of Goldmann applanation tonometer intraocular pressure (IOP) from scleral Schiotz IOP values in eyes with type-1 keratoprostheses
British Journal of Ophthalmology Dec 11, 2020
Senthil S, Chary R, Ali MH, et al. - In this prospective cross-sectional study, researchers sought to validate estimation of Goldmann applanation tonometer (GAT) intraocular pressure (IOP) from scleral Schiotz IOP measurements utilizing a regression model in normal eyes and eyes with type-1 keratoprostheses. Data reported that the actual values of GAT IOP measurements in normal eyes ranged between 6 mmHg and 62 mmHg. The model's accuracy in measuring IOP has been found to be 91%. In the assessment of IOP in eyes with type-1 keratoprostheses, scleral Schiotz IOP values along with the predictive model may be an alternative objective approach to finger tension IOP.
