Abstract
The Schiotz tonometer with 5.5, 7.5 and 10 g weights was calibrated for the normal canine eye, using a transducer with open and closed reservoir systems. The line of best fit for the observations was determined, and the equation of this line was utilized to derive a calibration table for the conversion of tonometer scale readings to millimeter of Hg intraocular pressure.
