Icare TA02i

The Icare TA02i is a used handheld rebound tonometer designed for fast, anesthetic free measurement of intraocular pressure. It uses a lightweight, disposable probe that makes brief contact with the cornea, delivering readings without the need for numbing drops or a slit lamp mount, which makes it especially convenient for bedside, pediatric, and mobile eye care settings. Its portable form factor allows clinicians to bring accurate IOP testing directly to the patient rather than requiring the patient to sit at a fixed instrument. Clinically, the TA02i is used for glaucoma screening, post-operative monitoring, and situations where traditional applanation tonometry is impractical, such as with young children, patients with limited mobility, or those who are apprehensive about eye contact devices. The rebound technology it employs correlates probe deceleration with corneal resistance to estimate IOP, and results are typically displayed on the device's built-in screen within seconds. Its battery powered operation and compact housing support use across multiple exam rooms or in outreach and home visit programs. This pre-owned Icare TA02i has been tested for proper function and is ready for continued clinical use. It provides an efficient, patient friendly alternative to contact based tonometry for practices seeking flexibility in how and where IOP measurements are taken.
