摘　　要：AIM: To investigate the accuracy of intraocular pressure (IOP) as measured by a Reichert Ocular Response Analyzer (ORA), as well as the relationship between central corneal thickness (CCT) and IOP as measured by ORA, Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAD, and dynamic contour tonometry (DCT). METHODS: A total of 158 healthy individuals (296 eyes) were chosen randomly for measurement of IOP. After CCT was measured using A-ultrasound (A-US), IOP was measured by ORA, GAT, and DCT devices in a randomized order. The IOP values acquired using each of the three tonometries were compared, and the relationship between CCT and IOP values were analyzed separately. Two IOP values, Goldmann-correlated IOP value (IOPg) and corneal-compensated intraocular pressure (IOPcc), were got using ORA. Three groups were defined according to CCT: 1) thin cornea (CCT<520 mu m); 2) normal-thickness cornea (CCT: 520-580 mu m); and 3), thick cornea (CCT>580 mu m) groups. RESULTS: In normal subjects, IOP measurements were 14.95 2.99mmHg with ORA (IOPg), 15.21+/- 2.77mmHg with ORA(IOPcc),1522+/- 2.77mmHg with GAT,and 15.49+/- 2.56mmHg with DCT. Mean differences were 0.01+/- 2.29mmHg between IOPcc and GAT (P >0.05) and 0.28+/- 2.20mmHg between IOPcc and DC (P >0.05). There was a greater correlation between IOPcc and DCT (r =0.946, P =0.000) than that between IOPcc and GAT (r=0.845, P=0.000). DCT had a significant correlation with GAT (r=0.854, P=0.000). GAT was moderately correlated with CCT (r=0.296, P<0.001), while IOPcc showed a weak but significant correlation with CCT (r =0.155, P =0.007). There was a strong negative correlation between CCT and the difference between IOPcc and GAT (r=-0.803, P=0.000), with every 10 m increase in CCT resulting in an increase in this difference of 0.35mmHg. The thick cornea group (CCT>580 mu m) showed the least significant correlation between IOPcc and GAT (r=0.859, 0.000); while the thin cornea group (CCT< 520 mu m) had the most significant correlation between IOPcc and GAT (r= 0.926, P =0.000).
