MEASUREMENT
ONE SHORT BEEP
Indicates a correct single measurement.
DOUBLE BEEP
Indicates an incorrect measurement.
(See error codes from the instruction
manual).
LONG BEEP
Indicates that six successful measure-
ments are done and IOP result is available
on the display.
1. Ask the paent to relax and look
straight ahead at a specic point
to keep the eye steady during
the measurement.
2. Bring the tonometer near the paent’s
eye. Check that the central groove is in
a horizontal posion. It’s not necessary
to look at the display during the mea-
surement since the device gives sound
signals about errors etc.
3. Keep the distance from the p of the
probe to the paent’s cornea at 4 to 8
millimeters (5/32 - 5/16 inch). If neces-
sary, adjust the forehead support.

The p of the probe should make
contact with the central cornea.

six correct measurements are done,
the IOP will be shown on the display.
