Noncontact air-puff tonometry is an effective method of measuring IOP after ICL implantation, but it is better avoided in cases of excessive high vault, shallow anterior chamber, narrow anterior chamber angle and soft cornea.
Implantation of the Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL, STAAR Surgical) is a safe, well-established method to correct myopia, and because ocular hypertension is one of the most commonly reported complications, IOP should always be monitored after implantation. To evaluate the safety of noncontact air-puff tonometry as a method to measure IOP, the Corvis Scheimpflug tonometer
