iCare vs Tonopen vs Goldmann Applanation Post-vitrectomy Surgery

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Intraocular Pressure
Interventions
Device: Icare rebound tonometry
Device: Tonopen applanation
Device: Goldmann applanation
Registration Number
NCT01786954
Lead Sponsor
Duke University
Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to compare the measurement of pressure inside the eye using three different FDA-approved devices (Icare, Tonopen, and Goldmann applanation).

Detailed Description

The three above devices will be used to measure intraocular pressure in patients one day following vitreoretinal surgery. The underlying reason for surgery is not being considered in this study. The measured pressures will be compared across devices in eyes filled with fluid, gas, and silicone oil.

Icare then Tonopen then GoldmannGoldmann applanationEnrolled patients will be subjected to intraocular pressure measurement using Icare rebound tonometry, Tonopen applanation, and Goldmann applanation. Patients receive Icare first and then are randomized to receive Tonopen followed by Goldmann OR Goldmann followed by Tonopen. This arm is Icare then Tonopen then Goldmann.
