At some point of an eye exam, your ophthalmologist performs checks to measure iop as well as to rule out ocular hypertension (any scenario in which the stress internal the eye is better than everyday) and early poag (see ocular hypertension and primary open-angle glaucoma).

The the front of your eyes, along with your cornea, anterior chamber, iris, and lens, are examined using a special microscope called a slit lamp. With a slit lamp examination, the ophthalmologist seems for signs of different causes or hazard factors of glaucoma.
