  • tonometry the measurement of intraocular pressure by determining the amount of force needed to make a slight indentation in the cornea
  • cataract surgery eye surgery that involves removing all or part of the lens and replacing it with an intraocular lens implant
  • tonometer measuring instrument for measuring tension or pressure (especially for measuring intraocular pressure in testing for glaucoma)
