Tono-Pen® Tonometer Accuracy Starts with Authentic Reichert® Blue Ocu-Film® + Tip Covers

If you're concerned about accuracy of the readings from your Tono-Pen® Tonometer, or the Tono-Pen has become more difficult to use, look at the front of your Tono-Pen and tell me what color are the tips you're using.

Authentic Ocu-Film® + Blue Tip Covers by Reichert® are designed for use on the Tono-Pen. There are other brands on the market, but they are not all equivalent. Many of those other brands don't control the thickness or the latex characteristics as precisely as Reichert® does, and that can affect the accuracy of the product.

It can also contaminate the transducer because many of these tips have talcum powder inside of them, which can get into the transducer and clog it, causing you difficulty in obtaining measurements and requiring you to send your Tono-Pen for service more frequently. So always make sure your Ocu-Film + Tip Covers are blue.

Ocu-Film + Tip Covers were carefully developed as an integral part of the design specifications for Tono-Pen tonometers to ensure measurement accuracy and reliability. Using genuine brand Reichert Ocu-Film + Tip Covers guarantees you are using a disposable tip cover that is specifically engineered for proper performance of your Tono-Pen.

FDA cleared Reichert Ocu-Film + Tip Covers are blue in color to reassure the user that the tip cover is the genuine brand approved for use with Tono-Pen AVIA and Tono-Pen XL applanation tonometers.

Using non-Reichert tip covers could cause damage to your Tono-Pen and void the warranty, necessitating expensive repair costs. In addition, non-Reichert tip covers could potentially cause the Tono-Pen to give erratic readings. Reichert brings you custom made tip covers that provide dependable performance and function with each measurement. It is important to have a consistent thickness at the transducer tip area so that the tip cover does not affect the IOP measurement. Reichert stands by our control of this thickness, unlike some other tip cover brands.

Protect your Tono-Pen investment and your patients by only using blue Reichert Ocu-Film + Tip Covers.
