Intraocular pressure (IOP) is the only modifiable risk factor in Glaucoma. Applanation tonometer is the preferred method for measuring IOP. The prototype applanation tonometry is Goldman applanation tonometer. This video discusses the principle and technique of measuring IOP by Goldmann’s applanation tonometer. This video also discusses the limitation of Goldman applanation tonometry. alternative methods of IOP measurements in difficult situation and calibration of goldman applanation tonometer.
