Intraocular Pressure Measurement with Instrumented Contact Lenses

M. E. GREENE 1 and B. G. GILMAN 1

1 Southern Research Institute, 2000 Ninth Ave. S., Birmingham, Ala. 35205.

Flush-fitting, silastic gel contact lenses instrumented with strain gauges have been used to measure changes in the meridional angle of the corneoscleral junction of a rabbit due to variation in intraocular pressure. Output from these strain gauges appears to be well defined and the sufficient magnitude to drive a miniature telemetry package which could be used to continuously monitor intraocular pressure without changing the pressure level due to the measurement itself.

Key Words: Intraocular pressure • tonometry • contact lens • transducer • instrumentation • glaucoma • corneoscleral junction
