MEASUREMENT

1. Bring the tonometer near the patient’s eye.
   NOTE! Avoid excessive restraining, as it may alter the IOP. Patient’s head should be held as lightly as possible; be careful not to put pressure on the neck or the eye ball. If a collar is worn, make sure it is not too tight or remove it for measurement.

2. To perform a successful measurement, the distance from the tip of the probe to the patient’s cornea (see pictures) should be about 4-8 mm (about 5/32 – 5/16 in.). Bring the tonometer in front of the patient’s eye with the probe pointing to the center of the cornea. The probe base light must be green (indicating correct measuring position.)

3. Default measure. The probe will contact the eye during measurements: press and hold the Measure button to collect 6 measurements in Series mode or press the button briefly 6 times to collect 1 measurement at a time in Single mode. The grey segments of the circle on the display screen will turn green one by one.

4. Quick measure. The probe will contact the eye during measurements: press and hold the Measure button to collect 2-3 measurements in Series mode or press the button briefly 2-3 times to collect 1 measurement at a time in Single mode. The grey segments of the circle on the display screen will turn magenta one by one.
