  Note :

  The instrument operates by sending a puff of air toward the cornea with more than sufficient strength to momentarily applanate it. The point of applanation is detected by an optical system. The time taken from the onset of the puff to the applanation of the cornea is recorded electronically and has been found to be related to the intraocular pressure.
