A New Diagnostic Approach

Ivar Hørven, MD

Arch Ophthalmol. 1969;82(4):440-445.

Abstract
A significant increase of the pulse-synchronous changes in eye tension is demonstrated in most eyes harboring choroidal melanomas. The pulsations in eye tension are recorded with a sufficient degree of accuracy by use of dynamic tonometry, a technique which accordingly may be of diagnostic value in this disease.
