In our study, the Icare ic200 overestimated the IOP. The overestimation increased as the baseline IOP increased. The agreement between the IOP measurement by GAT and Icare ic200 was <2 mm Hg at all ranges of IOP. The narrow limits of agreement between the tonometers for an IOP <21 mm Hg makes it a useful alternative to GAT in this pressure range.

As early adopters of Icare technology, we have many years of experience with the devices. The ic100 has been a wonderful advancement.  The added features that assist the operator with proper alignment ensures the measurements are repeatable and accurate. It is a true timesaver that provides us with measurements we can trust.

In patients with glaucoma, there is a possibility of their eye pressure either fluctuating significantly or being outside the target range (as determined by their doctor). Both these changes are associated with worsening of glaucoma. Monitoring for these changes between office visits can help reassure the doctor and the patient that the therapy is adequate and that the patient is compliant with treatment. If the eye pressure is not stable, then the doctor can recommend additional treatment or tailor the eye drop regimen to stabilize the pressure before permanent loss of tissue or visual field occurs.
