Patient Preparation
Before using the Pulsair EasyEye you should make your patient feel at ease
and ensure they are located in an optimum reading location. This is
because apprehension and nervousness may adversely affect the readings
obtained. Follow the points outlined below to achieve this:
•
Ask the patient to switch their mobile telephone off if they have one.
•
Ensure that the patient is comfortable and in a relaxed position.
•
Ask the patient to remove their contact lenses or spectacles if worn
and to blink normally.
In order to reassure the patient, you can demonstrate the procedure on
the back of the patient's hand prior to taking a reading:
•
Position the hand unit above the patient's hand and press Demo .
The patient experiences a gentle puff of air.
Before taking a reading you should:
•
Ensure the patient and instrument optics are not positioned under
direct lighting (i.e. spot lights or sunlight).
•
Ensure the patient’s eyes are fully opened. This helps to prevent
squeezing , where the patient unconsciously tenses their eyelids and
increases IOP.
Throughout the reading process, you should:
•
Allow the patient to blink at intervals in order to maintain the corneal
tear film.
