There is no consensus in the literature on how to measure intraocular pressure (IOP) in case of leucorrhoea. We set ourselves the goal of finding out in a clinical setting the effect on the data of applanation tonometry of the size, intensity and location of corneal opacities and, taking into account the information obtained, to develop the most rational method for assessing tonometric indications for leucorrhoea.
