PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE
A highly sensitive precision finished relief valve will limit to approximately 60 mmHg, the pressure that can be applied to the Honan Intraocular Pressure Reducer. It is permanently adjusted and is designed to prevent pressure in the bellows from exceeding approximately 60 mm Hg, even if the gauge should become damaged by rough handling, dropping, etcetera. It will hold 20 - 40 mm Hg pressure as desired for as long as the Surgeon deems necessary.

It is easily added to any Pressure Reducer now in service.


REUSABLE
This Pneumatic Eye Softener comes to you
completely assembled. Check it over carefully for damage in shipping. If any damage is found, notify
us and the carrier who should make note of concealed damage.

Relief Valve (Where Used)

This highly sensitive precision finished Relief Valve will limit to approximately 60 mm Hg the pressure that can be applied by the Honan Intraocular Pressure Reducer.
Preparation For Use, Reusable
Clean and disinfect the Headband, Bellows and Tubing, (parts that touch the patient's face) using a recognized germicidal solution.
Wipe clean. Do not immerse. Do not autoclave or gas sterilize.

CAUTION: Do not sterilize the Pressure Gauge or Bulb Air Pump.
They could be damaged in the process.

Positioning the Pressure Reducer
Tape upper lid closed to avoid touching cornea.  Place a Sterile Eye Pad or 4" x 4" gauze over
the eye and position the soft pneumatic Bellows over the pad and the eye, securing it loosely in
place with the adjustable Headband.
Apply Headband loosely enough to prevent putting pressure on eye before inflating Bellows,
but tightly enough to apply desired pressure when inflated.

Before inflating Bellows, read the Guidelines For Using The Pneumatic Eye Softener.
