Purpose of the Procedure
- Early diagnosis of Glaucoma.
- Monitoring the effectiveness of eye pressure medications.
- Post-surgical eye health evaluation.
Goldmann Applanation Tonometry is the global gold standard for measuring intraocular pressure. It provides highly accurate results essential for early glaucoma detection, monitoring eye health, and preventing irreversible vision loss.
Scientific name: Goldmann Applanation Tonometry (GAT)
A precise clinical procedure using a slit-lamp mounted tonometer to measure intraocular pressure. It is the most reliable method for diagnosing glaucoma and monitoring eye fluid dynamics.
