7.8 Tonometry
Prerequisite
þ
The measuring prisms must be disinfected and undamaged.
Therefore, we recommend the use of several measuring prisms.
Action
u
Please refer to the instructions for use and disinfection of
tonometer measuring prisms on our website and in the instruc-
tions for use of the AT 030 applanation tonometer.
u
Make sure that the table top of the instrument table or exami-
nation unit is horizontal, thus avoiding movement of the slit
lamp with attached tonometer towards the patient. This is of
particular importance when taking tonometric measurements
without locking the instrument base. We recommend that you
always lock the instrument base using the QuickStop (if
available) or the manual brake as soon as the measuring prism
touches the cornea.
u
When using the optional applanation tonometer, we
recommend looking through the left eyepiece with the right
eye while observing the patient with the left eye or looking
through the right eyepiece with the left eye while observing the
patient with the right eye.
