Corneal Deformation Parameters Provided by the Corvis-ST Pachy-Tonometer in Healthy Subjects and Glaucoma Patients.

Purpose: To evaluate precision and accuracy of Corvis-ST, a new noncontact tonometer equipped with a high-speed Scheimpflug technology, which measures intraocular pressure (IOP), central corneal thickness (CCT), and corneal deformation parameters (CDPs). Relationships among IOP, CCT, and CDPs were also assessed.

Materials And Methods: This prospective, randomized study included 1 eye of 164 subjects (79 controls and 85 glaucoma patients), which underwent IOP measurements taken 3 times with Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) and Corvis-ST in random order.
