Clinical Evaluation of CATS Tonometer Prism

October 19, 2018 updated by: Intuor Technologies, Inc.
Prospective, open-labeled, randomized, controlled, multicenter study at two clinical investigative sites in Tucson, Arizona. The subjects will undergo intraocular pressure measurement with the CATS tonometer prism and the Goldmann applanation tonometer prism (GAT). Seventy-five (75) Subjects 18 and older and will be enrolled. Subjects will be screened based on standard of care vision examination at the clinical investigation sites. All subjects will undergo a standard ophthalmic exam and informed consent. IOP will be measured using a Goldmann tonometer armature with both the standard flat GAT prism and the modified curved CATS prism alternately inserted. The only additional measurement is central corneal thickness (CCT) which is used to correct for one of the corneal biomechanical errors seen in the GAT prism and is currently standard of care.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Goldmann Tonometer
determine if the CATS tonometer prism effectively reduces sensitivity to IOP errors produced by corneal thickness and therefore provides a more accurate IOP reading compared to the reference tonometer (Goldmann prism), based upon the correction value table for Goldmann tonometer prism
IOP tonometer prism for assessment of intraocular pressure
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: CATS tonometer
determine if the CATS tonometer prism effectively reduces sensitivity to IOP errors produced by corneal thickness and therefore provides a more accurate IOP reading compared to the reference tonometer (Goldmann prism), based upon the correction value table for Goldmann tonometer prism
IOP tonometer prism for assessment of intraocular pressure
