Optical measurement of the corneal oscillation for the determination of the intraocular pressure.

Conclusion With a compact and cost-effective approach, that suits the requirements for a handheld self-tonometer, the corneal oscillation can be detected with high temporal resolution. The cross-sensitivity of the sensor concept concerning a distance variation can be reduced by adding a distance sensor. Existing systematic influences of corneal biomechanics will be integrated in the sensor concept as a consecutive step. PMID: 30231007 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
