Intraocular pressure measurement
At our clinic, we perform regular intraocular pressure checks, also known as tonometry, using a Goldman contact tonometer. Usually, an increase in intraocular pressure is the result of a combination of factors such as age, heredity, ethnicity, and gender. Tonometry is performed as part of a routine examination unless otherwise recommended by the doctor. Elevated pressure has no symptoms. It does not cause pain or changes in vision. It rises slowly and gradually, causing vision to deteriorate at a slow pace and without obvious symptoms. The damage it causes, however, is irreversible. Elevated pressure can lead to glaucoma and, over time, to damage of the optic nerve. If the patient has glaucoma, it must be treated promptly because there is a risk of gradual vision loss.
