Central Corneal Thickness and Intraocular Pressure Measured with Goldmann Applanation Tonometer among Patients with Normal Intraocular Pressure
A thick cornea leads to an overestimation of Intraocular pressure while thin cornea leads to an underestimation of Intraocular pressure. We recommend that Intraocular pressure measurement should be associated with a pachymetry correction to avoid inaccurate readings.
