Saleh Abu Asleh scite author profile

Four masked examiners studied the usefulness of the glass-rod for estimating intraocular pressure (IOP) in a living, anesthetized rabbit eye manometrically set to 135 different random values. With training, the average error in IOP estimation improved from 7.42 +/- 5.56 mmHg to 5.13 +/- 4.48 mmHg. Gentle palpation of the corneal apex with a glass-rod provides tactile and visual clues that may assist in estimating the IOP.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
