In our 1st series of examinations the Grant's 4-minutes-tonography, combined with waterdrinking (Becker), was compared with Leydhecker's modification of 7-minutes-tonography. Out of 60 healthy eyes were 13,3% false-positive with the 4-minutes-tonography, combined with waterdrinking, however with the 7-minutes-tonography none of these were glaucoma-suspicious. For 92 glaucoma-suspicious eyes, which were tested with both methods, the 7-minutes-tonography proved to be much more valuable. Leydhecker's value P3/CL3-7 offers 38,4% positive results at a starting pressure of 18-22 mm Hg, and 51,1% positive results at a starting pressure of 20-24 mmHg. Grant's 4-minutes-tonography, combined with waterdrinking (Becker), may show suspicious values at pressures of 18-22 mm Hg, however is not able to register with certainty existing pathological findings. In 2nd series of examinations 54 eyes with proven glaucoma chronicum simplex were tested with the 7-minutes-tonography. It showed a reliability of 83%.
