A member asked:
In what way is intraocular pressure measured from within the sterile field?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Schiotz tonometer: I commonly use a sterilized schiotz indentation tonometer in a sterile field. The accuracy is fair, but the instrument can be sterilized and will not compromise the sterile field.
