Tonometry

Did you know that in the eye you have a different and independent blood pressure than in the blood pressure?

Inside the eyeball there are two gelatinous liquids called aqueous and vitreous humor, responsible for maintaining, nourishing and cleaning different internal structures. These maintain a balance between their production and drainage that, if altered, can cause diseases such as glaucoma, which is an increase in intraocular pressure that, if not maintained at normal values, can damage the optic nerve and cause loss of vision.

Having high eye pressure values does not cause, first of all, eye pain or redness, so you should come to take this measure frequently and even more so if you have a family history.
