Description
Yingbo Liu's team tested a macaque-specific eye pressure mode, in a 2026 ex vivo study. Accurate eye pressure measurement in non-human primates matters for glaucoma care, yet no vet eye-pressure device was designed for them. The team tested the iFalcon V100 rebound device's macaque mode against a high-precision invasive sensor.
Pressure was raised stepwise from 5 to 90 mmHg, with six rebound readings averaged at each step. The device correlated strongly with the invasive sensor, with a mean difference of minus 0.036 mmHg. Agreement was excellent from 5 to 30 and acceptable up to 90. The mode offers a promising non-invasive tool for primate eye care.
