6. INTRODUCTION

The Icare HOME tonometer is a hand-held device for self-use.
The tonometer uses the rebound method. A small and light single-use probe makes
contact with the eye very briefly. The tonometer measures the deceleration of the
probe and the rebound time, and calculates the IOP from these parameters.
A measurement sequence includes six measurements. The probe moves to
the cornea and back during every measurement. As a result, after the six
measurements the tonometer calculates the final IOP and stores it with other
information in the tonometer's memory, including date, time, eye identification
(right or left) and measurement quality.
The Icare HOME tonometer can record over one thousand measurement results.
You can copy the recorded measurement information to a PC through a USB cable.
