Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of four methods of tonometry: method agreement and interobserver variability.
TL;DR: There was good interobserver agreement with the GAT and moderate agreement between the NCT and GAT, which probably preclude the OBF and Tono-Pen from routine clinical use as objective methods to measure IOP in normal adult eyes.

TL;DR: For confirmed ocular hypertension, findings suggest that there is no clear benefit from intensive monitoring, and the best available glaucoma risk prediction model estimated the 5-year risk based on age and ocular predictors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical evaluation of rebound tonometer.
TL;DR: Measurement of IOP in normal, healthy subjects using the ICare rebound tonometer produced a small, statistically insignificant, positive bias when compared with the Goldmann tonometer.
Journal ArticleDOI
The relationship between intraocular pressure and refractive error adjusting for age and central corneal thickness
TL;DR: The relationship between intraocular pressure (IOP) and refractive errors after adjusting for age, central corneal thickness (CCT), and other related factors is investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of the accuracy and reliability of the Topcon CT80 non-contact tonometer.
TL;DR: This study was designed to assess reliability of the new Topcon CT80 non‐contact tonometer in normotensive subjects, using the Goldmann tonometer as the standard.

Statistical methods for assessing agreement between two methods of clinical measurement.
TL;DR: An alternative approach, based on graphical techniques and simple calculations, is described, together with the relation between this analysis and the assessment of repeatability.

TL;DR: The prevalence of open-angle glaucoma in Beaver Dam is similar to that in other white populations, and findings from this study re-emphasize the notion that estimates of glauca prevalence should be based on assessing multiple risk indicators.

Intra-ocular pressure, glaucoma, and glaucoma suspects in a defined population.
F. C. Hollows,P. A. Graham +1 more
TL;DR: In the Rhondda valley the Medical Research Council has laboriously carried out a census so that the exact number of persons and their age and sex are known for this area, which was admirably suited for a total population study of the prevalence of glaucoma in the summer of 1963.
Journal ArticleDOI
The prevalence of glaucoma.
TL;DR: The occurrence of glaucoma was studied in a population comprising 1963 persons born during 1907 to 1921 and living in a small Swedish suburban and rural district and the reduction in visual capacity caused by glaucolysis in the present population was limited.

Common causes of blindness and visual handicap in the west of Scotland.
TL;DR: An analysis of blind registration forms was made and it was found that the leading causes of blindness in order of frequency of incidence were senile macular degeneration, glaucoma, cataract, diabetic retinopathy, and myopic degeneration.
