The Imbe-Fick law is associated with: (A) Schiotz tonometry, (B) Applanation tonometry, (C) Pachymetry, (D) Keratometry
Answer is B. The concept of applanation tonometry was introduced by Goldmann is 1954. It is based on Imbe- Fick law which states that the pressure inside a sphere (P) is equal to the force (W) required flattening its surface divided by the area of flattening (A); i.e., P = W/A.
