Study summary

The primary objective of this clinical study is to prove that tonometry values for NIDEK TONOREF III are comparable to the predicate device and to prove that the pachymeter function of NIDEK TONOREF III is equivalent to the predicate device. The secondary objective is to demonstrate that the test device is as safe as the predicate devices.

    NIDEK TONOREFIII

    Device: NIDEK TONOREF III · Device: Haag-Streit, PERKINS HAND-HELD APPLANATION TONOMETER · Device: NIDEK CEM-530

Interventions

  • DeviceNIDEK TONOREF III

    The auto ref/kerato/tono/pachymeter TONOREF III is a medical device which measures objective refractive errors, corneal curvature radius, intraocular pressure and corneal thickness of the patient's eye.

  • DeviceHaag-Streit, PERKINS HAND-HELD APPLANATION TONOMETER

    Haag-Streit Goldmann Manual Tonometer measures intraocular pressure to aid in the screening and diagnosis of glaucoma

  • DeviceNIDEK CEM-530

    Nidek CEM-530 is a non-contact ophthalmic microscope, optical pachymeter, and camera used for examination of the corneal endothelium and for measurement of the thickness of the cornea.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Equivalent to legally-marketed devices

    Agreement of intraocular pressure (mmHg) measurement for TONOREFIII and PAT

    Time frame: One or two study visits per subject. One visit is less than two hours.

  2. Equivalent to the pachymeter function

    Agreement of central corneal thickness (µm) measurement for TONOREF III and CEM-530

    Time frame: One or two study visits per subject. One visit is less than two hours.

Secondary outcomes

  1. The numbers of adverse events

    To demonstrate that the test device is as safe as the predicate devices.

    Time frame: One or two study visits per subject. One visit is less than two hours.
