An implant for determining intraocular pressure includes at least one electrical pressure sensor for measuring the intraocular pressure, at least one microchip that is connected to the pressure sensor, and at least one antenna that is connected to the microchip, the microchip generating digitally encoded data from the electrical signals of the pressure sensor, which data can be transmitted by an antenna, using electromagnetic waves, to a receiver located outside the eye, and components being accommodated in a small housing, the outer dimensions of which are limited such that the implant can be positioned between the sclera and the choroid of the eye, is improved in that the pressure sensor is accommodated on an outer housing side of the implant, which outer housing side is brought into contact with the choroid in the eye.
