Digital contact tonometer PASCAL Dynamic Contour Tonometer, NEW!

Description

Pre-owned digital contact tonometer PASCAL Dynamic Contour Tonometer, NEW!

The PASCAL Dynamic Contour Tonometer (DCT) is a digital contact tonometer for ophthalmological applications. The slitlamp mounted device furnishes a numeric output of intra-ocular pressure (IOP) and of ocular pulse amplitude (OPA) upon touching the cornea for a few seconds. It measures pulsatile IOP directly and continuously (dynamically).

PASCAL offers valuable clinical benefits:

Unlike applanation tonometers, which are influenced by corneal thickness and other characteristics of the cornea, and hence may produce misleading estimates of IOP, the PASCAL provides an accurate, direct measurement of true IOP which is independent of inter-individual variations in corneal properties and biomechanics.

IOP measurement is accurate even on post-LASIK and keratoconic eyes.

PASCAL detects and accurately measures the dynamic fluctuations in IOP and thus permits a more detailed assessment of the pressure range to which the eye is subjected due to pulsatile ocular blood flow.

The PASCAL repeatedly samples intraocular pressure at the rate of 100 times per second. The ocular pulse amplitude and the systemic pulse rate are measured and recorded by the instrument. In addition, the ocular pressure pulse is graphically represented on the patient report.

A disposable silicone tip cover prevents cross contamination and greatly reduces the likelihood of corneal abrasion, even with an inexperienced user.

Convenient documentation and visualization of numerical results and of IOP curves is possible with the optional wireless printer or PASCAL DataWizard PC software.
