Details |
| Comparator Agent |
Air-Puff Tonometry (APT) |
Air puff tonometers (APT) are non-contact devices that applanate the cornea by a puff of air and measure IOP by the time required to flatten a given area of the cornea. As the pressure of the air pulse directed to the cornea increases to deform the cornea, the corneal surface behaves like a plane mirror, reflecting light to the
detector |
| Comparator Agent |
Goldmann
Applanation Tonometry (GAT) |
The Goldmann applanation tonometer (GAT) is currently the most popular tonometer available. It consists of a double prism mounted on a standard slit lamp. The GAT represents the gold standard for IOP measurement and is used in all major randomized glaucoma clinical trials. With the GAT, the force required to flatten, or applanate, a constant area of the cornea is measured and related to the IOP using the Imbert–Fick principle. The GAT uses an applanation diameter of 3.06 mm and is performed with the patient seated at
the slit lamp. |

Brief Summary
|
The prospective, multicenter, open-label, single-arm study will adopt a design aiming to evaluate various intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement techniques among patients with different ocular conditions, including glaucoma suspects, or those with normal intraocular pressure. A total of 102 selected subjects, encompassing 204 eyes, will be enrolled in this comparative study, with recruitment occurring over a 2-month period, comprising those with normal (IOP 11-22 mm of Hg) and abnormal IOP (Low IOP less than 10mm of Hg and High IOP greater than 22mm of Hg). Air puff tonometry (APT) will be administered first, followed by over-the-eyelid tonometry OET Accuway, and finally Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) in both eyes to prevent applanation-induced lowering of IOP. For OET Accuway a mean of three readings will be recorded. A 10-minute break will be set between each IOP measurement to minimize after-measurement fluctuations in the IOP. Prior to any study-related procedures, informed consent will be diligently obtained from each participant, adhering strictly to ethical guidelines. Baseline assessments, inclusive of comprehensive medical history, ocular examination, and initial IOP measurements employing all three tonometry techniques (OET [Accuway], APT, GAT), will be meticulously performed on the same day. Data collection will employ a standardized form, capturing demographic details such as age, gender, and IOP measurements obtained from all three tonometers. The study arm will be single, focusing on OET (Accuway)/GAT/APT within subjects. The observational/diagnostic IPs will include Over-the-eyelid tonometry OET (Accuway) as the observational diagnostic device and Goldmann tonometry (GAT) and Air puff tonometry (APT) as gold standard diagnostic devices. The expected study timeline is set at 3 months, with a 2-month enrolment period. |
