English term or phrase: TOD
In a document from an Albanian ophthalmologist:

TOD: 12,0mmHg
TOS: 12,0mmHg

I just got confirmation that D and S mean dexter and sinister and the O probably means oculus, but the T might be something else than Latin since all the Google hits are from the Balkans (and they don't give any explanation). I have an English translation of the document with the same abbreviations.

Suggestions?

Pressure, right eye
Explanation:
I don't know what it might originally have been in Albanian (or Latin), but it looks like this must be talking about the intraocular pressure (for which the value of 12 mmHg would be entirely plausible.

In FR, it is also 'T', as it is 'tension'.
