Overview
Eye Pressure / NCT / Tonometry is a quick and commonly performed eye examination used to measure intraocular pressure (IOP). Elevated eye pressure can be associated with glaucoma, a condition that can gradually damage the optic nerve and cause permanent vision loss if left untreated.
Non-Contact Tonometry (NCT) uses a gentle puff of air to estimate eye pressure without directly touching the eye. Other tonometry methods may use a specialized instrument to obtain a more precise pressure measurement. The test is quick, generally painless, and can be performed as part of a routine eye examination or glaucoma assessment.
