Reliability and Reproducibility of the Eye Check Tonometer (EyeCheck)

November 4, 2022 updated by: Duke University

Reliability and Reproducibility of the Eye Check Tonometer Pressure Measurements as Measured by Patients Reliability and Reproducibility of the Eye Check Tonometer Pressure Measurements as Measured by Patients

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.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: EyeCheck
EyeCheck pressures will be measured with contact lens in place
EyeCheck is a newly developed device to provide intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements of the eyes.
Active Comparator: Traditional Tonometer (Goldmann and Tonopen)
Pressures will be measured with both Goldmann and Tonopen (both traditional tonometers to take the intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements of the eye).
Standard of care intraocular pressures will be taken using the Goldmann and Tonopen to compare to the EyeCheck.
