PASCAL offers valuable clinical benefits:
Unlike applanation tonometers, which are influenced by corneal thickness and other characteristics of the cornea, and hence may produce misleading estimates of IOP, the PASCAL provides an accurate, direct measurement of true IOP which is independent of inter-individual variations in corneal properties and biomechanics.

IOP measurement is accurate even on post-LASIK and keratoconic eyes.

PASCAL detects and accurately measures the dynamic fluctuations in IOP and thus permits a more detailed assessment of the pressure range to which the eye is subjected due to pulsatile ocular blood flow.

A disposable silicone tip cover prevents cross contamination and greatly reduces the likelihood of corneal abrasion, even with an inexperienced user.

Convenient documentation and visualization of numerical results and of IOP curves is possible with the optional wireless printer or PASCAL DataWizard PC software.
