In order to provide a method for obtaining and representing IOP time progressions for a patient that creates an optimised database for the individual IOP progression of a patient, the invention states that said method comprises the following steps: a) continuous measurement and storage of IOP data for a patient on a normal day over a period of at least 24h without medication, followed by b) continuous measurement and storage of the IOP data for a patient over a period of at least 24h under the patient's medication, wherein c) a recording of medication times, medication duration, dosage, active ingredient, and events over the course of the day for the patient, wherein d) the data is measured with at least double the frequency of an assumed time-based pattern in the IOP pressure course and wherein e) the stored data is transmitted to a processing unit and the data is processed.
