final eye pressure reading in mmHg, time and date of the measurement,
identification of the eye (right or left) and the quality level of the
measurement. Uploading is easy:
1. Start Icare software in your mobile device or PC (Figure 30).
2. Connect the tonometer to the mobile device or PC using the USB cable.
The Load and Measure lights will flash. If no lights flash or the SERVICE
and BATTERY lights flash, reconnect the USB cable.
3. The internal clock of the tonometer is automatically updated to the
mobile device's or PC's time by the Icare software at this point (Figure 31).
