POV: Your Ophthalmologist explains that you need to sit still while you get air blown into your eye so they can check your eye pressure. You're then told that this is a BIG improvement from the "Old School" method which was a Tonometer that actually poked your eyeball to find your eye pressure..
No one enjoys the poke or puff of air that is necessary to check your eye pressure during an eye exam but it is immeasurably important. This test can detect eye disease such as glaucoma, which can lead to blindness. We are working to get our new non-invasive technology into doctors offices so eye exams can be more comfortable and accurate.
