Measurement of tension or intraocular pressure.
A measurement of pressure inside an organ, especially the eye.
Diagnostic procedure to detect increased intraocular pressure indicative of glaucoma.
The use of an instrument (tonometer) to measure the fluid pressure inside the eyeball, mainly to test for glaucoma, a condition in which fluid pressure is elevated.
A test that measures pressure within the eyes. Tonometry is used to test for glaucoma, a disease in which rising pressure inside the eyeball may impair vision.
The measurement of tension of a part, as intraocular tension, used to detect glaucoma.
The method used to assess the fluid pressure inside the eye, commonly carried out by an ophthalmologist or optician during an eye examination. Tonometry proves valuable in detecting glaucoma, a condition characterized by elevated pressure within the eyeball.
