Surgical instrument maintenance ensures the continued safety of your patients, helps you manage your instrument budget, and keeps your overall departmental expenses in check.
A Schiotz tonometer is an instrument for measuring the intraocular pressure (IOP). It is inexpensive, simple to use, durable, requires little maintenance, does not have electronics, does not require batteries, and can be stored for years between uses.
These qualities make it well suited for screening and remote or mobile clinics when it is cleaned and maintained properly.
