The supporting arm 18 is connected to a metal hook 21 and extended from the front side of an arm to the shoulder of the user. Similarly, the supporting arm 16 is attached to the rear part of the tonometer cuff by a metal hook 20 and extended from the tonometer cuff through the back of the arm to the shoulder of the user. Two supporting arms are coupled on the shoulder of the user by a connecting part 26 on the tonometer cuff.
