Abstract
Reproducibility by means of replicated single pressure readings of 82 eyes of 46 glaucoma patients in the supine position were compared. The SD deviation was 7% for the pneumatonograph compared to 13% for the Perkins hand held applanation tonometer. The difference of the reproducibility is highly significant.Keywords
