Positioning the tonometer is instructed in the
following section.
Look straight ahead and the
tonometer is at a 90-degree
angle to your face. The probe is
about 5 mm from your eye and
points perpendicularly to the
center of your eye.
The forehead
support A rests
on your forehead
and the cheek
support B rests
on your cheek.
If you see a red light in the probe
base, the tonometer is tilted too
much downwards. You should
straighten your posture and lift
your chin.

START
WARNING! Only the probe should touch the eye. Do not touch your eye with any
other parts of the tonometer. Do not poke your eye with the tonometer.
Place the tonometer against your face and
look into the probe base. The probe points
perpendicularly to the center of your eye
when the blue and green rings in the probe
base are symmetrical.
Before the measurement,
adjust the forehead and
cheek supports to the
correct length. Start
with the supports at the
maximum length.
Shorten the supports
only two clicks at a
time to prevent the
tonometer from getting
too close to your eye.

5 mm
Keep both eyes
open. Covering
the eye not being
tested may help
you see the rings
more clearly.
Shorten the supports by rotating them
clockwise two clicks at a time until you only
see a symmetrical green ring. The tonometer is
now at the correct distance from your eye.
If the rings are not symmetrical,
the probe does not point
perpendicularly to the center of
your eye. Correct the position of
the tonometer.

Start the measurement
when you see only a
symmetrical green ring.
Press the Measure button
once. The probe gently
touches your eye.
If the probe base ashes
red and you hear multiple
beeps, the measurement
was not successful. See
Troubleshooting on page 16.
A single beep indicates a
successful measurement.
Continue taking measu-
rements until you hear a
long beep and the light in
the probe base
turns o.
