Abstract

Objective: This study aims to assess the degree of agreement between IOP measured using
Perkins and Goldmann applanation tonometers, and both Goldmann correlated intraocular pressure
(IOPg) and corneal compensated intraocular pressure (IOPcc) measured using ORA in PCG patients
.
Study Design:
a prospective, single-center, observational study. Patients and Methods: All
patients with PCG and fulfilling the inclusion criteria of the study underwent full ophthalmological
examination and CCT measurement using ultrasound pachymetry. Applanation tonometer was used
to measure the IOP. ORA was used to detect CH, CRF, IOPcc, and IOPg. Agreement between IOP
measured using applanation tonometers, and both IOPg and IOPcc was tested using interclass
correlation (ICC).
Results: Forty three eyes of 28 patients were included. Twenty two were males.
The mean patients age was 9.14 years. The mean IOP measured using applanation tonometry was
16.07 mmHg. The mean IOPg was 21.857 mmHg. The mean IOPcc was 24.17 mmHg. The mean
difference of IOP measured by applanation and both IOPg and IOPcc was 5.78 mmHg and
8.1mmHg respectively with higher measurements by ORA. These differences were statistically
significant (p =0.00). IOPg error % was statistically significantly positively correlated with CCT
(p=0.009) and CRF (p=0.00) with correlation coefficient of 0.399 and 0.504 respectively. IOPcc
error % was statistically significantly negatively correlated with CH (p=0.034) with correlation coefficient of - 0.324.
Conclusion: In the current study, a statistically significant difference between
the IOP measured using applanation tonometry and ORA obtained IOP namely IOPg and IOPcc
was detected with higher ORA measurements.
