WARNING!
Only the probe should touch the eye. Do not touch your eye with any
other parts of the tonometer. Do not poke your eye with the tonometer.
Place the tonometer against your face and
look into the probe base. The probe points
perpendicularly to the center of your eye
when the blue and green rings in the probe
base are symmetrical.
Before the measurement,
adjust the forehead and
cheek supports to the
correct length. Start
with the supports at the
maximum length.
Shorten the supports
only two clicks at a
time to prevent the
tonometer from getting
too close to your eye.

Keep both eyes
open. Covering
the eye not being
tested may help
you see the rings
more clearly.
Shorten the supports by rotating them
clockwise two clicks at a time until you only
see a symmetrical green ring. The tonometer is
now at the correct distance from your eye.
If the rings are not symmetrical,
the probe does not point
perpendicularly to the center of
your eye. Correct the position of
the tonometer.
