Intended Use
The iCare Tonometer TA01i is intended to be used for the measurement of intraocular pressure of the human eye.
Device Story
The iCare Tonometer TA01i is a portable, handheld, battery-operated device used to measure intraocular pressure (IOP). It utilizes a rebound measurement principle: a lightweight (26.5 mg) disposable plastic probe is propelled at a slow speed (0.25-0.30 m/s) to make momentary contact with the cornea. The device measures the probe's speed during contact; this data is processed by an internal microprocessor to calculate IOP, which is then displayed on an LCD. The device is designed for use without topical anesthesia. It is operated by healthcare professionals in clinical settings. The low weight and speed of the probe ensure minimal force (8-16 mN) is applied to the eye, potentially increasing patient comfort and safety compared to traditional applanation tonometry.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical performance was evaluated by comparing the iCare TA01i against predicate devices, including the Goldmann-type applanation tonometer. Bench testing confirmed the device met acceptance criteria for operating range, accuracy, and repeatability. Biocompatibility of the probe was verified per ISO 10993-1:2003. Electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility were confirmed per IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2.
Technological Characteristics
Handheld, battery-operated (4x AA). Rebound measurement principle using a 26.5 mg disposable plastic probe (0.9 mm tip radius). Microprocessor-based signal processing. LCD display. No maintenance calibration required. Biocompatible materials per ISO 10993-1. Electrical safety per IEC 60601-1; EMC per IEC 60601-1-2.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the measurement of intraocular pressure (IOP) in the human eye. No specific age or gender restrictions provided.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A tonometer and accessories is a manual device intended to measure intraocular pressure by applying a known force on the globe of the eye and measuring the amount of indentation produced (Schiotz type) or to measure intraocular tension by applanation (applying a small flat disk to the cornea). Accessories for the device may include a tonometer calibrator or a tonograph recording system. The device is intended for use in the diagnosis of glaucoma.

{1}------------------------------------------------
#### 5.1 Intended Use
The iCare Tonometer TA01i is intended to be used for the measurement of intraocular pressure of the human eye.
### 5.2 Device Description
The iCare Tonometer TA01i is a portable, handheld, battery operated tonometer, which measures intraocular pressure (IOP). To measure IOP, a very light (26.5 mg) and a slow moving (0.25-0.30 m/s) probe makes momentary contact with the cornea of the eye. The device measures the speed of the probe during the time probe is in contact with cornea. Resulting IOP is displayed on a liquid crystal display (LCD). The force used for the measurement which is directed onto the eye is extremely small, because of the low weight and slow speed of the probe.
#### 5.3 Predicate Devices
The iCare Tonometer TA01 is judged to be substantially equivalent in safety, effectiveness and intended use to the following legally marketed devices:

#### 5.5 Summary of Non-Clinical and Clinical Testing
The performance of iCare Tonometer TA01i has been evaluated in bench testing. The units under test met the acceptance criteria of the operating range, accuracy and repeatability.
In clinical evaluation, the performance of iCare Tonometer TA01i was compared to predicate devices, including Goldmann type tonometer.
Based on the results of non-clinical and clinical testing, the performance of iCare Tonometer TA01i is judged to be substantially equivalent to predicate devices. The patient contacting probe is considered biocompatible. The appropriate tests for biocompatibility were performed according to "ISO 10993-1:2003, Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1 Evaluation and Testing".
The electromagnetic compatibility and electrical safety of the iCare Tonometer TA01i was tested and found to conform to the requirements of IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2.
