The authors offer a comprehensive overview of interplay between glaucoma and intraocular pressure (IOP), IOP measurement principles and historical measurement techniques and progress in IOP measurement devices. The authors explore the issues surrounding current thinking in IOP measurement and its clinic applications, in particular, factors that may cause inaccuracy and unreliability in IOP measurement. The authors highlight the role of ambulatory IOP monitoring and its potential to enhance and improve glaucoma assessment and care. However, questions relating to its implementation, clinical application and health economics remain to be answered.
