値が指示せしめるものであった。(Prior art) Conventionally, a typical indentation type tonometer is one in which the reflected light from the depressor is received by a photodetector, and the amount of light detected by the photodetector gradually increases, causing the cornea to applanate. When it becomes like a plane mirror, the maximum amount of light finally reaches the photodetector, but the intraocular pressure value is converted based on the time (usually several milliseconds) until then, and the latter is Applanation f Apply pressure by bringing the IJ rhythm into contact with the cornea, and confirm the applanation state by matching the semicircle in the field of view of the slit microscope, and adjust the intraocular pressure by the degree of rotation of the dial at that time. The value dictated.

。However, in any case, each time a measurement is completed, one must take one's eye off the microscope to read the displayed or instructed value, and then reattach the eye and move on to the next measurement. Troublesome operations such as focusing are required each time, and therefore, measurements often take a long time.

ものである。(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides an intraocular pressure measuring device configured so that each measurement is voice-synthesized. As a more specific aspect, in a digital display tonometer, a voice synthesizer number is assigned to the number of the intraocular pressure measurement value displayed on the digital display meter, and the measured value is displayed digitally. Accordingly, the measured value is expressed by voice synthesis.In addition, in a dial-indicating tonometer, the voltage value 'j (intraocular pressure measurement displayed after A/D conversion) is generated corresponding to the indicated position of the dial. A voice synthesis number is assigned to the value number, and as the digital measurement value is displayed, the measurement value is expressed by voice synthesis.

て検者の目１９に到達するようになっている。A digital display tonometer 1 with a microscope, which is one of the objects of the present invention, has a structure as shown in FIG. Objective lens 14
The light is focused on the surface of the cornea 150, reflected from the surface, passes through the objective lens 14 again, passes through the beam splitter 13 and telescope lens 16, and is reflected by the dichroic mirror 17 to the photoelectric element 18 that detects the reflected light. As the light enters, a portion of the light passes through the dichroic mirror 17 and reaches the examiner's eye 19.

なっている。The amount of reflected infrared light is gradually increased by the air pressure applied to the surface of the cornea 150, and the moment the cornea is applanated, it acts as a plane mirror, and the amount of light reaching the photoelectric element or the examiner's eye becomes maximum. Air No. 4 Luss is injected from a nozzle 22 because a piston 21 built in a cylinder 20 moves forward to the position indicated by the dashed-dotted line in the figure in conjunction with the irradiation of infrared rays.

The problems with conventional devices include the hassle of focusing on the microscope after taking it off the camera to check the numerical value, unnecessary delays in measurement time, and decreased accuracy due to repeating measurements and readings alternately. It solves all the problems that occur during use, and is extremely useful when applied to other types of intraocular pressure measuring devices. Note that voice synthesis can also be used by restoring recorded data to obtain the average value, maximum value, minimum value, etc. of measured values.
