Publishable Summary for 20SCP02 CEFTON - Development of eye-tonometry in CEFTA countries
Original language description
The Central Europe Free Trade Agreement (CEFTA) National Metrology Institutes (NMI) need to be able to correctly implement intraocular pressure (IOP) metrology regulations in line with a new harmonised approach (e.g. as specified in MDR 2017/745). However, these emerging NMIs have been unable to fulfil the needs of their national stakeholders in the field of eye tonometry due a lack of relevant resources and experience. They required an experienced NMI partner to provide them with the necessary knowledge transfer. A Competence Centre for IOP metrology at CMI was used to provide the metrological know how for this purpose and a smart specialisation concept, which had been previously designed for IOP metrology in the Central Europe region, was modified to meet the specific needs of the CEFTA countries (Bosnia and Herzegovina, Moldova and North Macedonia). Overall, the project was successful in the transfer of all the relevant knowledge and skills to the partners and in the establishment of cooperation within the extended smart specialisation concept. The partner NMIs are now ready to introduce IOP metrology in their region and to actively support the prospective legislative changes.
