How to use the Reichert AT555 Properly for Self-Tonometry Research

  1. You should keep your face close to the tonometer. The best way to do this is to raise the tonometer high enough so that you can sit up straight when measuring your IOP. If you have to bend forward, your chin will tend to be too far away from the tonometer. I have found that having the chin too far away from the tonometer can result in less accurate readings.
  2. Sit up straight.
  3. Breath naturally.
