Abstract

Several clinical measurement techniques are used on the human eye, each of which measures, directly or indirectly, the pressure in the eye. From these pressure measurements, values for ocular rigidity, ophthalmic blood pressure, and aqueous flow can be inferred. The clinical operation of these instruments will not be discussed, but a theoretical description of their operation will be presented in this chapter.
