The Schiotz tonometer is a classic indentation instrument for estimating intraocular pressure. It ships with a full weight set, a conversion scale and a test plate for verification. A dependable, power-free option for screening and outreach use.

What to check before ordering

  • Complete weight set. Confirm the full graded weight set and conversion scale are included.
  • Test plate. Check that a test plate ships with the instrument for routine verification.
  • Case. A fitted case matters more than it sounds for field use — it is what keeps the set serviceable.
  • Spares. Ask about a spare plunger if the instrument is going into camp or outreach service.
