About This Trial
The goal of this prospective controlled study is to measure the reliability of two intraocular pressure (IOP)-measuring instruments in comparison to the gold standard, Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) following vitreo-retinal surgery. The main question the current study aims to answer is: are Icare and Accupen as accurate as GAT in measuring IOP one day post eye surgery? Participants in this …
