I hope it clears up and you wont need the opthamologist  |
Similar thing is used on dogs, "tonometry":
Tonometry in Dogs - Page 1
It used mainly to test for glaucoma, but pressure highs and lows can arise from trauma and other eye ailments.
I had no idea that they use this method for humans...and I thought the "puff" test was bad.
That thing makes me jump every time.
