眼压计临床应用进展

Application progress of tonometer in clinic

眼内压的测量是眼科护理中一项重要的工作,有效监测眼内压对于许多眼科疾病的诊断与治疗意义重大.近些年来,大量有关眼内压监测技术的研究催生了诸多新型眼压计,与传统眼压计相比,它们在操作难度、便携性、精准度等方面均做了许多改进.但是,大量新型眼压计的临床应用也对眼科护理及眼科护士提出了更高的要求,只有全面了解不同眼压计的工作原理和适用范围才能更好、更准确地测量眼内压.鉴于此,本文对目前已应用于临床的各种眼压计的工作原理及各自利弊进行综述,以期更好地指导眼科护士在临床正确使用.

Measurement of intraocular pressure is a crucial task of ophthalmic nursing and it is important for diagnosing or curing ophthalmic diseases. In recent years,an increasing number of studies concerning technologies of monitoring intraocular pressure bring with us many new-type tonometers. In comparison with traditional tonometers,the new-type tonometers has made a progress in operative difficulty index,portability and accuracy. However,the application of these new-type tonometers in clinic also puts more challenges for ophthalmic nursing and ophthalmic nurses. Only by a comprehensive understanding of the working principle and application scope of different tonometers,could we measure intraocular pressure better and more accurate. For this reason,working principles,benefits and disadvantages of tonometers applied in clinic are reviewed as follow in order to better guide the ophthalmic nurse in clinical used correctly.
