Reichert 7cr — Used Auto Non-Contact Tonometer with Corneal Response Technology
The Reichert 7cr is an automated non-contact tonometer built around Reichert’s patented Corneal Response Technology. Instead of a single applanation reading, the Reichert 7cr uses a bi-directional applanation process to characterize the cornea’s biomechanical response and report a corneal-compensated IOP (IOPcc) that is minimally affected by corneal thickness, visco-elastic properties or refractive surgery such as LASIK and PRK.
Every Reichert 7cr measurement also displays a Goldmann-correlated IOP (IOPg), so readings stay comparable with a patient’s applanation history. Alignment and measurement are fully automated: the patient leans against the forehead rest, the instrument tracks the eye and fires a soft air puff, and no anesthetic drops or probe covers are needed. This used unit gives a practice corneal-compensated tonometry at a fraction of the cost of a new system.
The National Library of Medicine indexes peer-reviewed research comparing corrected intraocular pressure from the Reichert 7CR with another non-contact tonometer in glaucoma patients — the clinical context for using corneal-compensated IOP when corneal properties may bias a standard reading.
Why Practices Choose the Reichert 7cr
- Corneal Response Technology — bi-directional applanation characterizes corneal biomechanics to produce IOPcc, reducing the influence of thick, thin or surgically altered corneas
- Dual IOP readouts — IOPcc and Goldmann-correlated IOPg are shown together for each eye
- Waveform score — each measurement receives a signal-quality score; low-scoring readings are flagged and multiple readings are weighted-averaged
- Real-time applanation control — 400 data samples during the 25 ms measurement, so air force is matched to each eye
- Fully automated alignment — one-touch, triple-measurement mode that any trained technician can run in seconds
- Non-contact measurement — no anesthesia and no cross-contamination risk from a contact probe
- Built-in records — internal printer plus USB port for electronic data transfer

This overview from Reichert explains the 7CR’s Corneal Response Technology and how it reports IOPcc alongside Goldmann-correlated IOP.
Clinical Applications
- Glaucoma screening and monitoring — IOPcc helps identify pressure that a standard reading may under- or over-estimate
- Post-LASIK and PRK patients — corneal-compensated IOP for eyes whose corneas were altered by refractive surgery
- Atypical corneas — patients with thin or thick corneas, keratoconus, Fuchs’ dystrophy or corneal edema
- Routine pre-testing — fast, automated, non-contact IOP for every comprehensive exam
Who This Is For
- Optometry practices — adding automated non-contact tonometry with corneal compensation to pre-testing
- Ophthalmology and glaucoma clinics — wanting IOPcc alongside Goldmann-correlated values for corneal variants
- Refractive surgery centers — following IOP in post-LASIK and PRK patients
- Growing or satellite offices — equipping an additional lane with a used instrument instead of a new one
