Indications for use
The Icare® Tonometer TA01i is intended to be used for the measurement of intraocular pressure in
the human eye.
Introduction
The Icare® Tonometer is used in the diagnosis, follow up and screening of glaucoma.
It is based on a new, patented, induction-based rebound method, which allows intraocular pressure
(IOP) to be measured accurately, rapidly and without an anesthetic.
Since single-use probes are used for measurement, there is no risk of microbiological contamination.
Intraocular pressure changes due to the effects of the pulse, breathing, eye movements and body
position. Because measurements are taken using a handheld device in fractions of a second,
several measurements are needed to obtain an accurate reading and there fore the software is
pre-programmed for six measurements.
