Our GAT range uses the Goldmann method of measuring intraocular pressure (IOP), which is to calculate the force required to flatten (applanate) a constant area (3.06mm) of the cornea to aide in the screening and diagnosis of glaucoma.

Keeler applanation tonometers (KATs) are a versatile measurement device for a wide variety of lower and tower-illumination style slit lamps.

Usage overview

The KAT (T-Type is) a measurement device used to measure intraocular pressure which is one of the key biomarkers considered in diagnosing glaucoma. It is intended to be used by suitably trained and authorised healthcare professionals only.

We offer three variants of GAT.  Designed to be used with tower-illumination H-style slit lamps, the R-Type is mounted on the optical body post for a secure fix, whilst the T-Type can easily be removed for wider use within a multiple slit lamp practice. Our newest KAT, the Z-Type is designed for use with lower-illumination style slit lamps.

As a T-Type, this unit can be mounted with a guide plate, making it fully removable for wider use within a multiple slit lamp practice.
