Abstract The authors considered the possibility of using the Pulsair-Keeler non-contact tonometer in self-tonometry. For this reason, 45 patients have been trained to use the instrument and, after a reasonable trial period, were able to self-measure their IOP, The results have been compared to the tonometric values measured with Goldmann tonometer to evaluate statistically the limits and the dependability of this method of measurement. The results shows that self-tonometry with the Pulsair-Keeler tonometer can be used in monitoring glaucomatous patients at home.
