FAQs
What is Tono-Vera® Tonometer?
How does Tono-Vera Tonometer compare to Goldmann Applanation Tonometer (GAT)?
Tono-Vera Tonometer is highly correlated with Goldmann Tonometry. It has met international regulatory standards for tonometer accuracy. The Tono-Vera ActiView Positioning System automatically measures when aligned, providing more objective IOP readings that clinicians can have confidence in.What are the advantages of using a rebound tonometer, such as the Tono-Vera Tonometer?
Rebound tonometry is a method used to measure intraocular pressure (IOP) without the need for anesthetic drops. A small, lightweight probe is gently propelled toward the cornea, making brief contact with the eye and then rebounding back. The device measures the deceleration of the probe during this rebound which correlates with the IOP. There is minimal risk of cross-contamination because of the single-use probes.How is Tono-Vera Tonometer different than other rebound tonometers?
Tono-Vera Tonometer effortlessly delivers fast, repeatable IOP readings with the patented ActiView Positioning System technology, providing guided alignment and automated measurements. Ocu-Dot® Tonometer Probes are engineered for Tono-Vera Tonometers to deliver fast, hygienic, and accurate IOP readings.Who can use the Tono-Vera Tonometer?
Tono-Vera Tonometer’s intuitive interface and ActiView Positioning System reduces operator variability, ensuring consistent results across trained users.What comes in the Tono-Vera Tonometer Starter Kit?
The kit includes the Tono-Vera Tonometer device, docking base, Ocu-Dot Probes, and either AA or rechargeable battery cartridge options.How do I load the probe?
Remove the Ocu-Dot Probe tube cap, insert the probe into the chamber, and rotate until it slides into place.How should I position the Tono-Vera Tonometer when taking a reading?
Hold Tono-Vera Tonometer so the Ocu-Dot Probe and Canthus Marks are perpendicular to the eye. Adjust the Flexi-Soft™ Forehead Rest to assist with positioning by rotating the Flexi-Soft Forehead Rest Adjustment Wheel. Using the ActiView Positioning System, align the probe to the eye such that the probe angle is ±15º from level and the probe tip is approximately 6 mm (±1.5mm) from corneal apex. Tono-Vera Tonometer will automatically measure when properly aligned.Tono-Vera can be rotated a full 360º around the axis of the Ocu-Dot Probe, as long as the probe is kept parallel to the ground, within the ±15º probe angle range.
Can I use Tono-Vera Tonometer to measure IOP in a supine position?
Since Tono-Vera Tonometer can be rotated a full 360º around the axis of the Ocu-Dot Probe (as long as the probe is kept parallel to the ground, within the ±15º probe angle range) reclined or recumbent patients can be measured by positioning their head to the side.How does Tono-Vera Tonometer’s ActiView Positioning System work?
The Tono-Vera Tonometer ActiView Positioning System guides the user to the correct alignment using visual indicators. When proper distance of 6mm (±1.5mm), centration, and probe angle (±15º) are achieved, the device automatically takes the measurement.What do the result colors mean?
• Green Ring: High-confidence final IOP result
• Yellow Ring: Low-confidence final IOP result
• Orange Ring: No result; retake measurement.
How many readings are needed?
Tono-Vera Tonometer can take 3 or 6 readings depending on the selected mode.Can measurements be taken manually with Tono-Vera Tonometer?
Yes, Tono-Vera Tonometer has 2 measurement modes, manual and automatic. We recommend using automatic mode.Are Ocu-Dot Tonometer Probes interchangeable with other tonometer probes?
No, Reichert’s Tono-Vera Tonometer was cleared to be used with Ocu-Dot Tonometer Probes only.Can I connect the Tono-Vera Tonometer to my EMR system?
Yes, Tono-Vera Tonometer features built in Bluetooth data transfer, allowing you to send data with the touch of a button. Pair Tono-Vera Tonometer with ReichertSync® and the software will automatically connect with the device anytime the Bluetooth is enabled.Where can I buy replacement probes or accessories?
Accessories and consumables are available from your authorized Reichert distributor as well as the Reichert Online Store in the USA."Dependable IOP Measurements Crucial for Glaucoma Detection and Management" – April Jasper, OD, FAAO on Reichert® Tono-Vera® Tonometer

"Patients Prefer Reichert® Tono-Vera® Tonometer" – Deepa Wadhwa, OD
Deepa Wadhwa, Optometrist at James Bryan Opticians (UK), shares her real-world experience using the Reichert® Tono-Vera® Tonometer with ActiView™ Positioning System. She recently introduced the Tono-Vera® into her practice and it’s already become a patient favorite. Dr. Wadhwa explains how quick and easy Tono-Vera® Tonometer is to use, how well tolerated by patients, improving comfort, and reducing anxiety during eye exams, and the positive impact on patient experience and practice workflow.
Dr. Wadhwa stated, "I recently purchased the Tono-Vera® Tonometer and I'd highly recommend it. Tono-vera Tonometer is a fantastic piece of equipment. Easy-to-use, compact, very quick, reliable, and gives a positive patient experience. Most patients prefer it to the ‘puff of air’ test, and find it more comfortable and generally leave impressed by the new equipment."
"I'm very impressed with the Tono-Vera® Tonometer" – Lee Thomas, OD

"Tono-Vera® Tonometer auto-measures, no need to guess or miss the moment" – Allison McGraw, OD, FAAO
Allison McGraw, OD, FAAO, is a practicing optometrist who shares her impressions and experiences after using the Reichert® Tono-Vera® Tonometer with ActiView™ Positioning System in clinic and on a mission trip to Chulucanas, Peru.
Dr. McGraw said Tono-Vera has many features that set it apart from other tonometers, such as a full color screen with camera view and an intuitive user interface with auto-measurement, which is all based on a refined rebound tonometer experience providing a well-tolerated, consistent measurement.
Dr. McGraw stated that the patented ActiView Positioning System and auto-measurement means you never need to guess when you're in the right position, or worry you will miss the right moment of when to take the measurement.
"Tono-Vera is helpful for a variety of patients. It's great for normal patients, it's great for dry eye patients that you're trying to avoid using anesthetic drops on, it's great for patients with disabilities, and for patients who are really strong blinkers or squeezers that you have trouble getting Goldmann measurements on, or other rebound tonometry device measurements on. And in terms of those patients, they're not going feel it. It's quick and easy and just allows for consistency of measurements."
"Tono-Vera® Tonometer Has Become Our Preferred Tonometer in Practice"
"The Tono-Vera® Tonometer has proven to be an excellent addition to our clinical practice. The device is easy to use, provides consistent and reliable readings, and is well tolerated by patients. Its efficiency has streamlined our workflow, allowing us to assess ocular health quickly and with the use of the screen to view the eye to take accurate readings. It’s proven to be the better option for those patients who have poor mobility and with strong blink reflexes. I would recommend Tono Vera to any practice looking for a dependable and patient-friendly solution to measure IOPs."
