[Indentation of the cornea and tonometry. Preliminary results].
The tensile force T evoked by indentation of the cornea was registered for the first time using the pressure-sensitive probe of the Stepanik Arteriotonograph : T increases with the depth of the corneal indentation and, when the indentation is constant, it increases asymptomatically to a higher level for about 2 minutes.
