The invention relates to medicine. The inventive device for measuring intraocular tension through an eyelid comprises a body, a movable sleeve provided with a support and placed in the body in such a way that it is reciprocally displaceable for producing a static load applicable to the eyebulb through the eyelid, a rod which is provided with a flat base and is arranged in the sleeve cavity in such a way that it is displaceable with respect to the support and produces an impact action for deforming the eyebulb through the eyelid and at least one measuring coil placed in the movable sleeve. A permanent magnet is mounted on the rod and the measuring coil is disposed with respect to the magnet in such a way that it is enabled to control the direction and speed of the rod displacement and is connected to a control, processing and display unit, which is embodied in such a way that it produces opposite polarity voltage in the coil for returning the rod to the initial position thereof and for consequently creating the rod motion pulse in a direction of the support in such a way that the signal received from the measuring coil is converted and the obtained results are displayed.
