• Improper preparation can result in the transmission of diseases to the patient and user as well as damage to the measuring prism.

• Residue from cleaning agents and disinfectants may irritate and burn the patient’s eye.

• As a rule, the measuring prisms may be prepared together with each other, but not with any other products.

• In order to achieve efficient disinfection of tonometer measuring

prisms, we recommend using the disinfectant 'Sekusept Forte S'. It was successfully used by the accredited testing laboratory HS Sys‑ tem-­und Prozesstechnik GmbH, 65779 Kelkheim, Germany, when validating the cleaning and disinfection process − see separate in‑ struction manual on the cleaning and disinfection of tonometer mea‑ suring prisms and contact glasses. • The validation report is available from Haag‑Streit on request. • A summary of the validation report can be found on the Haag‑Streit website (www.haag‑streit.com). • The operator accepts liability for the use of other disinfectants. • Single-use prisms must be replaced after every examination − see separate instructions for use. • The above-mentioned instruction manual, the brief instructions Disin‑ fection of tonometer measuring prisms and contact glasses, and addi‑ tional information can always be found on our website www.haag-st‑ reit.com.

1.6.2 Visual inspection of the measuring prisms for damages

DANGER! Never use damaged measuring prisms. Prior to every use, the contact surface of the measuring prism must be inspected for contaminants or damage (scratches, cracks and sharp edg‑ es). This must be performed with a slit lamp microscope at 10× to 16× magnification.

1.6.3 Service life of reusable measuring prisms

WARNING! How long can measuring prisms be used? Due to the large number of variables to be considered (type and concen‑ tration of the disinfectant used, number of patients, handling, etc.) it is practically impossible to provide exact information on how often and/or how long a measuring prism can be used under safe conditions. 5

Introduction

The applanation tonometer functions according to the Goldmann method: measure‑ ment of the pressure required to maintain a uniform applanation of the surface of the cornea. The exact measurement of the applanation surface is performed at 10× magnification on the slit lamp. The pressure is measured on the slit lamp with the patient seated and is part of a routine examination within the scope of conventional slit lamp microscopy.

3.6 Description of models • The Applanation Tonometer AT 900 model R can be left on the slit lamp perma‑

nently. It is fastened to the microscope on a mounting base and swivelled in front of the microscope for the examination. The observation of the applanated surface is conducted monocularly – only through the left eyepiece. • The Applanation Tonometer AT 900 model T is set on the guide plate over the slit lamp axis, for tonometry purposes. The instrument can be moved between two positions on the guide plate for observation through the right or left eyepiece. The sensor arm with the measuring prism projects from the underside into the beam path of the microscope and the illumination. • The Applanation Tonometer AT 900 model BQ has a working position and two resting positions. To set the correct angle of incidence of the illumination, the to‑ nometer is swivelled and the illumination apparatus is positioned to the left of the tonometer bracket. In this position, the patient's left and right eyes can be easi‑ ly examined (no 60° position). The applanated surface is observed monocularly through the right eyepiece of the stereo microscope. • The Applanation Tonometer AT 870 is positioned over the slit lamp's (from other manufacturer) microscope. The feeler arm projects into the microscope and illumi‑ nation beam path from above. The tonometer is ready for use with a single swivel movement of the feeler arm. NOTE! The instructions for appliances from other manufacturers are to be ob‑ served.

5.1 Astigmatism • If the cornea is spherical, measurements can be taken on any meridian, but it is most convenient to measure on the 0° meridian.

• The choice of meridian is of significance, however, when measuring eyes with cor‑

neal astigmatism greater than 3 dioptres, since the flattened area is not circular but elliptical. • It has been calculated that, in cases of greater corneal astigmatism, a surface of 7.354 mm2 (ø 3.06 mm) is applanated if the measuring prism is at an angle of 43° (mark (A)) to the meridian of the greatest radius. Example: If the corneal astigmatism measures 6.5 mm / 30° = 52.0 dpt / 30° and (A) 43° 8.5 mm / 120° = 40.0 dpt / 120° the 120° graduation mark on the prism is set on the mark (A) of the prism holder. If, on the contrary, the measurements are 6.5 mm / 120° = 40.0 dpt / 120° and 8.5 mm / 30° = 52.0 dpt / 30° then the 30° graduation mark is set on the mark (A), meaning that simply the axis position of the largest radius is placed on the mark (A).

5.2 How pressure is measured

The applanation tonometer functions according to the 'Goldmann method': measure‑ ment of the pressure required to maintain a uniform applanation of the surface of the cornea. • The readings obtained are based on the assumption that a cornea with a 'normal' thickness is being measured. (a different corneal thickness leads to changes in the measured IOP) A 'normal' corneal thickness is considered to fall within the range of 530 to 560 Mikrometer. • If wrong measuring results are suspected, please conduct a functional verification in accordance with Section 'Maintenance'.

5.3 Preparing the patient

WARNING! Measurements without fluorescein can lead to false results.

NOTE! A smooth operation can only be guaranteed with the use of original Haag‑Streit measuring prisms and Tonosafe. 1. Anaesthetise each eye 2. Apply Fluorescein into the eye to be examined 3. The correct eye height of the patient can be set via the chin rest.

5.4 Patient instructions

1. Press the head firmly against the chin and forehead rests. 2. The patient must look straight forward. If necessary, the small fixing light can be used to steady the eyes. 3. It is recommended that the patient be repeatedly reminded to keep his eyes open wide during the examination. It might be necessary for the examiner to keep the eye open by splaying the eyelids with thumb and index finger. 4. This must be done without applying any pressure to the eye.

5.5 Preparation of slit lamp and tonometer

For all Haag‑Streit slit lamps and tonometers 1. Before the examination, the eyepieces must be adjusted correctly to the exam‑ iner. 2. Set the magnification to 10×. 3. Adjust the illumination to medium intensity. 4. Position the blue filter in the beam path of the slit lamp's illumination apparatus and open the slit diaphragm fully. 5. Insert the disinfected measuring prism into the (0° position) holder on the sensor arm. For Tonosafe, see the separate instructions for use. 6. Snap the sensor arm into place so that the axes of the measuring prism and of the microscope align. 7. Set the measuring drum to the first calibration line. AT 900 model R and AT 900 model BQ 1. Swing the illumination apparatus to the left. 2. Release the tonometer from the dwell position to the right of the microscope, and swing it forward until it locks in the measuring position. 3. From the left, bring the illumination apparatus into contact with the tonometer bearer arm. This is the only illumination position in which both the patient’s left and right eyes can be easily examined (no 60° position). This arrangement facili‑ tates the splaying of the patient’s eyelids, should this be necessary for measure‑ ment. The illumination of the applanated surface through the measuring prism is © HAAG‑STREIT AG, 3098 Koeniz, Switzerland – HS-Doc. no. 1500.7006000.04260 – 26. Edition / 2020 – 03

practically reflection-free. Observation: with AT 900 model R in the left eyepiece with AT 900 model BQ in the right eyepiece AT 900 model T 1. For an examination through the tonometer’s left or right eyepiece, the angle between the illumination instrument and the microscope should be approx. 60° so that the image is bright and reflection-free. Alternatively: lighting through the measuring prism at approx. 10°. AT 870 1. Swing the sensor arm with the measuring prism into the beam path of the micro‑ scope and the illumination. 2. The angle between the illumination equipment and the microscope should be approximately 60° so that the image appears bright and free of reflections. Alter‑ natively: lighting through the measuring prism at approx. 10°. 3. Set the measuring drum to the first calibration line. 4. Set a mid-level illumination intensity. WARNING! Measurements through observation with the wrong ocular can lead to false results.

5.6 Measuring correctly

NOTE! Make sure that the measuring arm of the tonometer can move freely and is not hindered by the patient's eyelashes, beard, etc.

1. Immediately before taking measurements, the patient should close his eyes briefly so that the cornea becomes sufficiently moistened with fluorescein-im‑ pregnated tear fluid. 2. By moving the slit lamp, the measuring prism comes into contact with the centre of the cornea over the pupillary area. 3. During contact, the cornea's limbus takes on a bluish glow. This glow can be best observed with the naked eye from the opposite side of the illumination ap‑ paratus. 4. When the limbus glows, stop moving the slit lamp immediately. 5. After contact is made, viewing is conducted through the microscope. The uni‑ form pulsation of the two semi circular fluorescein bands, which could be of dif‑ ferent sizes in drum setting 1 depending upon inter-ocular pressure, shows that the tonometer is in the right measuring position. 6. Any necessary corrections are done using the slit lamp control lever, until the 9

flattened surface is observed in the form of two semicircles of similar size in the middle of the visual field (A). 7. Smaller changes in the depth of the slit lamp using the control lever do not affect the size of the semicircles. 8. The pressure on the eye is increased by turning the tonometer measuring drum until the inner borders of both fluorescein bands just touch = correct setting (B). 9. When the eye pulsates, both semi circles cross over each other. 10. The width of the fluorescein band around the contact point of the measuring prism should be about 1/10 of the diameter of the applanation surface (0.3 mm). 11. Reading the scale value: • Reading the value • and multiplying by 10 • yields the inter-ocular pressure in mm Hg (A) (B)

The tear fluid dried during the longer-lasting measuring. Allow the patient to close his eyes a few times and then repeat the measurement.

5.7.1 Wrong distance to patient

No semi circular image, only centre line is visible (3) The measuring prism is not coming into contact with the cor‑ nea! If the patient draws his head back slightly, irregular pulsa‑ tions will be caused because the measuring prism is touching the eye only intermittently. If the patient retreats even further, the fluorescein rings will disappear completely.

3

Instruct the patient to adopt the correct position. Only parts of both oversize semicircles are visible (4) If the slit lamp is pushed too far against the patient, or if the patient moves toward the slit lamp, the sensor arm will push against a spring stop. The applanation surface is too large. The image does not change when the measuring drum is turned. Pull the slit lamp back until the uniform pulsations of a correspondingly smaller surface show the correct measuring position and pressure changes immediately cause applanation surface changes.
