Automate the current Goldmann tonometer's intraocular pressure reading to improve accuracy and ease of use.

Project Overview

Goldmann tonometry is currently the leading method for measuring a patient's intraocular eye pressure. The Goldmann tonometer consists of a probe which flattens a given area of the cornea to measure the pressure within the eye. Currently, a slit lamp needs to be used to view mires that help correctly align the probe with the eye. This process is challenging for technicians to learn and is prone to observer bias. The team has been asked to improve upon this process by automating the Goldmann tonometer's pressure reading, which will improve the device's accuracy and ease of use.
