Intraocular Pressure
Conditions
Keywords
dynamic contour tonometry, variability, pulse amplitude, Ocular pulse amplitude
Brief summary
The aim of the protocol is to document intra-observer and inter-observer variability with dynamic contour tonometry, and will also test the theory that pulse amplitude, as measured by dynamic contour tonometry, is correlated with the difference in systolic and diastolic blood pressures.
Interventions
Observe variability of measurements by dynamic contour tonometry
