    IOP is usually measured in an indirect way by measuring the tension on the surface of the eye‚ which is extrapolated to estimate the internal pressure. Therefore‚ methods to measure the IOP are influenced by corneal properties‚ like thickness and biomechanics. The Goldmann Applanation Tonometer (GAT) remains the most common method and the gold standard for measuring IOP. (Clement et al.‚ 2016). Principle of GAT: The GAT depends on the Imbert-Fick principle‚ which states that the pressure inside a sphere
