12.3.8 Select the eye to be measured. You can select either
eye for measurement by pressing the OD or OS
key. The selected eye will be displayed in the upper
left-hand corner. By default, the device is prepared
to measure the RIGHT eye.
• The device can also be configured to display an
operator defined measurement bias while in
Mapping Measurement Mode. (See sections
13.3.2 and 13.3.3)
12.3.9 Have the patient visualize a fixation point.
12.3.10 Confirm that the device is in Measurement Mode. (The blinking black cursor is not
shown in the upper left-hand corner).
12.3.11 Gently position the probe tip on the cornea as described in section 4.4. The Pachmate 2
will automatically take a single measurement when the probe is properly applanated.
• For each successful measurement taken the device will emit a quick ‘beep’.
• If the device is not able to obtain a
measurement within 3 seconds, the device will
emit a long beep and the ‘Poor Applanation’
message will be displayed.
• If the ‘Poor Applanation’ message is displayed, attempt to reposition the probe tip for
proper applanation. Once the probe tip is in proper alignment, the device will
continue measurement.
