The invention teaches a method, apparatus and system for measuring bio-medical attributes of the eye, such as internal or intraocular pressure. The invention enables taking measurements of the relative location of various surfaces of components of the eye under different conditions. The invention provides for applying a pressure disturbance to the eye acoustically and, using non-invasive optical techniques to perform measurements of vibrations or measurements of the time varying relative location of one or more surfaces or structures in a manner correlated with the pressure disturbance.
