Abstract

A theoretical design for a non-invasive, continuous, applanation, contact lens tonometer is proposed based on physical forces which cause a contact lens to adhere to the eye and the principles of applanation to measure pressure within a sphere. This instrument has potentially wide applications in the continuous measurement of intraocular pressure in patients with glaucoma, a blinding disease characterized by elevated intraocular pressure.

摘要

基于使隐形眼镜附着于眼睛的物理力以及用于测量球体内压力的压平原理，提出了一种用于非侵入性、连续、压平式隐形眼镜眼压计的理论设计。该仪器在青光眼患者眼压的连续测量中具有潜在的广泛应用，青光眼是一种以眼压升高为特征的致盲疾病。
