Description
KEELER Tonocare – Non-Contact Tonometer for Hospitals & Eye Clinics
Mediscience offers the KEELER Tonocare, a professional non-contact tonometer designed for intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement in hospitals, ophthalmology clinics, eye-care centres and professional screening environments.
The KEELER Tonocare uses air-puff/non-contact tonometry, allowing IOP to be assessed without direct contact with the eye. Keeler describes the TonoCare as a handheld system designed for fast, reliable measurements and patient comfort. The manufacturer also states that it can be ready for use in less than 10 seconds, with measurements for both eyes achievable in around 30 seconds.
Its combination of non-contact measurement, USB connectivity and compatibility with a dedicated docking station makes the Keeler TonoCare a practical choice for hospitals and eye clinics looking for professional ophthalmic tonometry equipment.

Non-Contact IOP Measurement
The KEELER Tonocare uses an air-impulse technique to measure intraocular pressure without direct contact with the corneal surface. A controlled air impulse is directed toward the cornea, while the system detects the resulting corneal response optically.
This non-contact approach can be advantageous for busy eye-care environments because it avoids direct contact with the cornea and does not require disposable contact probes or prisms. Keeler specifically highlights the reduced risk of cross-contamination associated with non-contact measurement.
Fast & Practical Clinical Workflow
The Keeler TonoCare is designed for efficient clinical use. Keeler states that the unit can be ready in under 10 seconds after switching on, while readings for both eyes can be obtained in approximately 30 seconds.
Its handheld design also allows measurements to be taken where the patient is most comfortable, which can be useful in different hospital and clinic environments.
Docking Station & Digital Connectivity
The TonoCare can be used with a dedicated docking station that provides charging and an integrated printer. The docking station can also provide data transmission to a computer through USB.
This makes the system suitable for clinics looking to incorporate printed IOP records and digital data transfer into their ophthalmic workflow.
Applications
The KEELER Tonocare Non-Contact Tonometer is suitable for:
- Ophthalmology hospitals
- Eye hospitals
- Ophthalmology clinics
- Eye-care centres
- Glaucoma screening workflows
- Routine IOP assessment
- Ophthalmic examination rooms
- Professional eye-care facilities
- Hospital ophthalmic diagnostic departments
Keeler positions the TonoCare as a screening device for measuring IOP, which is an important biomarker considered in glaucoma assessment.
Important Clinical Consideration
The Keeler instructions specify that the TonoCare should not be used in patients with corneal astigmatism greater than 3D. It is intended for use by trained and qualified healthcare professionals.

Frequently Asked Questions
A non-contact tonometer is used to measure intraocular pressure (IOP) without directly touching the cornea. IOP measurement is an important part of ophthalmic assessment and glaucoma screening.
The TonoCare uses an air-impulse technique. A controlled puff of air is directed toward the cornea and optical detection is used to assess the corneal response.
Because the measurement does not require direct contact with the corneal surface, non-contact tonometry can provide a convenient and patient-friendly approach to IOP assessment. Keeler specifically designed TonoCare with patient comfort and reassurance in mind.
Keeler states that the TonoCare can be ready for use in less than 10 seconds and that measurements for both eyes can be achieved in approximately 30 seconds.
