Abstract

See full text

Proposed is a device and a method for determining the inner pressure of a human eye, in which a plurality of pressure sensing elements, placeable on the eye, are used for measurement, with spatial resolution, of pressure values, which pressure-sensing elements are preferably disposed in a pressure sensor array, in particular in a micro-electromechanical pressure sensor array with at least one line of pressure sensing elements. The intraocular pressure is determined from the sum of the measured sensor pressure values and the number of pressure-sensing elements contributing to the sum. Pressure distribution profiles with spatial resolution and pressure distribution matrices are able to be shown graphically.
