Key takeaways:

IOP measurements with Tono-Vera had ‘strong correlation and agreement’ with the Ocular Response Analyzer.

The device is portable and includes features to reduce operator errors.

Perspective from Mark Eltis, OD, FAAO

IOP measurements taken with Tono-Vera, a new handheld rebound tonometer, closely align with those taken with the Ocular Response Analyzer, according to a cross-sectional study published in Journal of Glaucoma .

“The Ocular Response Analyzer (ORA, Reichert Technologies) is a noncontact tonometer that estimates IOP by analyzing corneal responses to deformation induced by an air pulse,” Luiz A.F. Beniz , MD , of Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, and colleagues wrote. “The Tono-Vera (Reichert Technologies) is a new rebound tonometer that implements sign
