Interobserver agreement using Goldmann applanation tonometry and dynamic contour tonometry: comparing ophthalmologists, nurses and technicians

Abstract

Ophthalmologists show good levels of agreement with each other when using GAT, while technicians/nursing staff show better agreement when using the DCT. The DCT may be a better tonometer to use if permanently delegating IOP measurements to non-ophthalmologists, but measurements cannot be interchanged with the GAT.
