Correct intraocular pressure for corneal thickness.
| Item | Formula / Rule | Source / Standard |
|---|---|---|
| Correction direction | Thin corneas make Goldmann readings underestimate true IOP; thick corneas overestimate | Ehlers et al., Acta Ophthalmologica, 1975 |
| Empirical slope | Every 10 µm of central corneal thickness shifts the reading by about 0.3 to 0.5 mmHg | Kohlhaas et al., Dresden correction, 2005 |
| Target pressure | Corrected values are indicative only; target IOP is set 20% to 30% below baseline | AAO Glaucoma Preferred Practice Pattern, 2015 |
