- Title
[Transpalpebral tonometry with a digital tonometer in healthy eyes and after penetrating keratoplasty].

- Abstract
The Goldmann applanation technique established itself as gold standard for clinical intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement. But the device measures by corneal touch and presupposes corneal conditions within a normal range. So precise determination of IOP is crucial in corneal disorders and after corneal surgery. This pilot study presents tonometry data of normal and postkeratoplasty eyes measured transpalpebrally with a digital tonometer in comparison to Goldmann tonometry.
