Transpalpebral tonometry: reliability and comparison with Goldmann applanation tonometry and palpation in healthy volunteers

2005

Background/aim: TGDc-01 is a new, portable, transpalpebral tonometry device. The aim of this study was to evaluate the reproducibility of this method, including intraobserver and interobserver deviations, and to compare the results with those of Goldmann applanation tonometry and palpation of intraocular pressure (IOP). Methods: A total of 40 eyes of 20 healthy volunteers were included. Two independent parallel observers (1 and 2) performed three replicate measurements per eye, respectively, both using TGDc01 tonometry, one observer (3) performed three replicate measurements using Goldmann applanation tonometry, and one observer (4) measured the IOP via palpation. Intraindividual deviations…

Komplikationen nach Molteno-Implantat: Eine Falldarstellung

2003

We present a 43-year old patient with refractory secondary glaucoma, who showed epithelial downgrowth into the anterior chamber following Molteno implant surgery. It will be discussed, whether the Molteno implant or the following keratoplasty, which was necessary because of corneal decompensation, caused the epithelial downgrowth.

Übereinstimmung von klinischer Beurteilung, Heidelberg-Retina-Tomograph (HRT) und Nerve Fiber Analyzer (GDx) in der Glaukomdiagnostik

2004

BACKGROUND We have made a comparison of clinical evaluation, Heidelberg-Retina-Tomograph (HRT) and Nerve Fiber Analyzer (GDx) in diagnosing glaucoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS One eye of 38 glaucoma patients and 26 non-glaucoma patients was examined with HRT and GDx. Assignment of the patients into the two groups by clinical evaluation was performed on the basis of visual field and optic disc results. As classification criterion for glaucoma/non-glaucoma by means of the instruments we employed the statistical classification of the HRT and "the number" of the GDx. Statistical analysis was performed with Cohen's kappa and McNemar tests. Additionally, ROC curves for evaluation of the sensitivity a…
