Abstract
Intraocular pressure measurement is important to identify people who are at risk of glaucoma. Goldmann Applanation Tonometry is considered the gold standard with regards to evaluating patients with glaucoma, a sight-threatening condition. The professional execution of this evaluation is critical in the reduction of associated complication rates. This article seeks to put forward a structured lesson plan for ophthalmology trainees, specialist nurses, and optometrists, which integrates Gagne’s nine events of instruction to accomplish this objective.
