The iCare HOME tonometer is the first device available to patients for measuring intraocular pressure at home. iCare HOME provides an extensive and accurate view of the patient’s diurnal IOPs for the eye doctor adding value to glaucoma management. For the patient, iCare HOME provides peace of mind and improves compliance to taking glaucoma medication.
“The difference between readings we obtain in the office and the data from the Icare HOME is like the difference between a single snapshot and a continuous movie of a patient’s daily life.” – Iqbal Ike K. Ahmed, MD, FRCSC, Mapping diurnal IOP fluctuations at home, insert to Glaucoma Today, September/October 2018
Glaucoma patients or those who are suspected of developing glaucoma can measure IOP themselves during normal daily activities throughout the day as advised by their doctor. Measurement results are uploaded to a cloud database from where they are accessible both to the doctor and the patient. Comprehensive IOP data facilitates high-quality care and can mean long-term cost savings.
iCare HOME is comfortable and easy to use, guiding the patient to make high-quality measurements every time. The device is lightweight and, thanks to a custom-designed case, easy to carry around. The ease of use, accuracy, and reliability of the iCare HOME tonometer has been shown in numerous clinical studies.
As for all iCare tonometers, measuring requires no anesthesia, drops, air or other preparation.
The iCare HOME tonometer is based on the widely patented iCare rebound tonometry principle. In an iCare measurement, a tiny disposable probe is briefly bounced off the surface of the eye six times. The rebound measurement is barely noticeable to the patient. No anesthesia or other preparations are needed.
Before the patient takes iCare HOME into use, he or she is advised by the hospital or clinic personnel on how to make measurements. The iCare HOME also guides the patient to take measurements correctly, helping to find the correct measurement position. The doctor will advise on how often measurements should be made.
