INTENDED USE
The Icare ic200 tonometer is intended to be used for the measurement of intraocular pressure of the human eye.
The Icare ic200 tonometer is intended to be used by healthcare professionals in a professional healthcare environment. No special skills or
training are needed to use the device.
INTRODUCTION
The Icare ic200 tonometer is based on a patented, induction-based rebound method, which allows intraocular pressure (IOP) to be measured accurately, rapidly
and without an anesthetic.
The Icare ic200 tonometer allows for a patient’s IOP to be measured for patients in the supine position as well as in upright (sitting or standing) positions.
With the Icare rebound measurement method, a miniature, light-weight probe is launched in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the center of the cornea
of the eye. The probe is composed of a medical grade plastic tip and a metal shaft. The metal shaft is magnetized prior to measurement. During a measurement,
the probe can be considered to act like a moving magnet that induces an electric signal in the surrounding coil allowing for highly accurate measurement of the
probe’s motion. After launching, the probe briefly makes contact with the cornea and bounces back. The tonometer records multiple parameters covering the
motion of the probe, including deceleration and rebound time. Using a proprietary algorithm, the device is able to calculate the eye’s IOP.
A displayed IOP reading is derived from the results from a sequence of six individual IOP measurements and calculations, made each of the six times the probe
hits the cornea and rebounds. The displayed IOP measurement is also stored in the tonometer’s memory for later retrieval.
The Icare ic200 tonometer incorporates a Bluetooth® module which allows wireless connectivity to Bluetooth-supported printers or for data transfer.
No part of the tonometer or probes contain natural rubber latex.
