Abstract:
1. An opthalmological analysis method for measuring an intraocular pressure in an eye with an analysis system including an actuating device that deforms a cornea of the eye in contactless manner, the method comprising the following steps: (a) applying a puff of air to an eye with an actuating device in such manner that a cornea of the eye is deformed; (b) observing and recording a deformation of the cornea with an observation system; (c) creating sectional images of the cornea when the cornea is deformed or not deformed according to step (a) with the observation system; and (d) deriving an intraocular pressure from the sectional images of the cornea with an analysis device, wherein a material characteristic of the cornea is derived from the sectional images of the cornea in the analysis device, wherein a diameter d
