Central Corneal Thickness in Nepalese Glaucoma Patients and Glaucoma Suspects
Intra Ocular Pressure (IOP) is an important parameter in the detection
and monitoring of glaucoma. The Goldmann applanation tonometer (GAT) is
the international “gold standard” for IOP measurement [1]. Central
corneal thickness (CCT) has been shown to influence the pressure
estimate [2], with thin corneas underestimating and thick corneas
overestimating the readings [3].
