Brief summary

To investigate whether the new applanation tonometer (EyeCheck monitor) can provide intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements comparable to those of traditional tonometers such as the Goldmann applanation tonometer and the Tonopen.

Interventions

DEVICEEyeCheck

EyeCheck is a newly developed device to provide intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements of the eyes.

DEVICETraditional Tonometer (Goldmann and Tonopen)

Standard of care intraocular pressures will be taken using the Goldmann and Tonopen to compare to the EyeCheck.

Intervention model description

All subjects will first take their pressure using the EyeCheck with contact lens in and then remove their lens have pressures taken with Goldmann and Tonopen (two standard of care techniques of taking pressures of the eyes).
