A tonometer is a specialized medical instrument designed to measure the intraocular pressure (IOP) inside the eye. This measurement is crucial for diagnosing and managing conditions such as glaucoma, which is characterized by increased pressure within the eye that can lead to optic nerve damage and vision loss if left untreated.
Each tonometer type has its advantages and is selected based on the clinical scenario, patient comfort, and the need for precision. Regular measurement of IOP is essential in the early detection and management of glaucoma, as well as in monitoring patients with existing eye conditions.
