“I was thrilled when I saw this instrument at the 2008 AOA meeting because individuals hate to be shot in the eye with a puff of air and I have been looking for 30 years for something not so barbaric. This instrument removes the need to place a puff of air in the eye, while meeting both the quality and ease-of-use requirements of larger tonometers.”

Randall Thomas, O.D., M.P.H., F.A.A.O

This handheld device delivers accurate IOP measurement

FAST, EASY, PAINLESS.GOOD COMPLIANCE AND

RELIABLE RESULTS.

The Icare® tonometer is a no-brainer for any busy practice. It is easy to use, patients love

it and it streamlines the examination process since it doesn’t require topical anesthesia

or NaFl dye use. In addition, I have found the Icare® to be more reliable and accurate

compared to applanation tonometry when dealing with patients who have poor

cooperation, deep set orbits, prominent brow or photophobia.

Ian B. Gaddie, OD, FAAO

Since we’ve been using the Icare we’ve found great efficiency and accuracy within our

practice. Not only have patients expressed gratitude for this new device rather than

having drops instilled in the eyes that burn or sting, we’ve found greater confidence

and accuracy in our diagnosis because no previous drops are affecting the ocular

surface. It also saves a significant amount of time per patient allowing us to see

more patients and it provides consistent IOP measurements compared to the

more cumbersome previous options. Finally new technology always impresses

patients and especially when it’s an improvement in patient comfort compared

to what they experienced in past examinations. Even our staff have migrated

over to using the Icare® because of it’s ease of use and great patient response.
