An instrument for recording the ocular pulse wave.

An instrument for recording the ocular pressure pulse is described. Examples of recordings showing individual differences in the shape of the pulse curve are demonstrated. The properties of the instrument as to the frequency response in the range 0.5-10 Hz are established with the aim of correcting the recordings for instrumental errors.
