Accuracy of Schiotz Tonometry in Measuring the Intraocular Pressure After Corneal Refractive Surgery

Accuracy of Schiotz Tonometry in Measuring the Intraocular Pressure After Corneal Refractive Surgery

Purpose: To test the accuracy of Schiotz tonometry (ST) in patients that underwent photorefractive keratectomy (PRK). Methods: 175 eyes previously treated with PRK for myopia, myopic astigmatism or mixed astigmatism, with a mean preoperative spherical equivalent (SE) of −4.27±2.83 diopters (range: -...
