- The measurement of intraocular pressure by determining the amount of force needed to make a slight indentation in the cornea
- (tonometer) measuring instrument for measuring tension or pressure (especially for measuring intraocular pressure in testing for glaucoma)
- (Tonometer) An instrument used to measure the pressure within the eye. This is one of several factors used in diagnosis of glaucoma. The results may also be used to follow the response of treatment to this disease.
- The measurement of the tension or pressure inside the eyeball.
