Abstract. A dual-beam pneumo-optical method for noncontact measuring of intraocular pressure is developed. The method employs pneumatic impact on the cornea of the eye and is based on presented physical and mathematical model of the effect used to determine the required parameter.
Keywords: intraocular pressure, tonometer, eye cornea, glaucoma
