Worlds Only Glaucoma (IOP) Eye Test Through Eyelid with DIATON Pen Tonometer - Quick and Painless Transpalpebral Tonometry
Measuring Intraocular eye Pressure (IOP) to detect glaucoma and other problems related the pressure inside of the eye has been, until recently, perceived to be quite uncomfortable and anxiety provoking for the patient. Even if these tests aren’t actually painful, the thought of having a strong burst of air shot into your open eye, or seeing the eye doctor coming at you with an instrument headed straight for, and then touching it to, your numbed eyeball can be quite and ordeal for some people.
Luckily, today, there is another option – Worlds Only THROUGH the Eyelid tonometer - Tonometer Diaton http://www.TonometerDiaton.com
Thanks to new technology and innovation, today ophthalmologists and optometrists can measure the pressure within a person’s eyeball, (intraocular pressure), without actually touching the eyeball or injecting a strong puff of air into the eye while it is open. The new instrument used to measure intraocular pressure, without anxiety and discomfort, is called the Diaton Tonometer; made by BiCOM, Inc. This ophthalmic instrument enables intraocular pressure to be measured through the upper eyelid; therefore, it never touches the eyeball. This not only provides less discomfort, it has hygiene and cleanliness advantages as well. The Diaton Tonometer never comes into direct contact with the eyeball, and therefore, does not directly touch a person’s tears. It is known that tears can contain bacteria and viruses, including the HIV virus that causes AIDs. It is intended that the device be cleaned and sanitized between patients with an alcohol swab. But because it does not directly touch a patient’s eye (non-conrnea tonometry) it does not have to be sterilized after each use.
Since DIATON is non-contact and handheld pen-like tonometer, it can be used in any setting – rural areas that desperately need glaucoma screening or Inpatient & Outpatient Clinics such as Hospitals, Emergency Rooms, Nursing & Elderly Homes, General, Family, Internal Medicine & Specialty Practitioners office as well as Ophthalmic and Optometric practice.
Major Benefits of Diaton Tonometer:
· No contact with the cornea (only upper eyelid)
· No risk of infecting or scratching cornea
· No consumables (no need to purchase replacement tips/covers..etc.,)
· No pachymetry needed (no need to purchase pachymeter)
· No daily calibration needed
· Handheld / Portable + Easy to use
DIATON Tonometer provides reliable measurements and makes it possible to diagnose glaucoma in its early stages, allowing to devise an appropriate care and treatment plan. DIATON is effective in obtaining IOP measurements for many challenging patient populations, including: those with chronic conjunctivitis, erosions, edema and corneal dimness; people who have undergone corneal surgeries; and immobilized patients and children. Also, patients do not need to remove their contact lenses.
Other advantages of Diaton Tonometry include being able to measure intraocular pressure on patients that may have malformations or diseases and illnesses of the eye which may make traditional methods even more uncomfortable, or even impossible. It also has the option of being used when a person being tested is lying down, or standing up. This is a big advantage for the practitioner when examining immobile patients and young children.
Another plus is that anesthetic is not needed prior to using this instrument. There are a number of people who are allergic to ingredients contained in some anesthetizing agents. The Diaton Tonometer makes it easy for the person using it to get an accurate reading. It has a digital display that is easy to read, and a sensor that emits an audible sound if the instrument is place in the incorrect position, or if the battery is low. This new tool also has the benefit of being able to easily take several measurements and averaging them quickly with the push of a button.
The Diaton Tonometer is small and easily portable and comes in its own case. Again, it does not have to be sterilized after each use, and the battery is easily changed. A testing device to determine if the instrument is functioning correctly is also provided and is also conveniently kept within the carrying case when not in use, Diaton does not require daily calibration.
As with any new technology, the accuracy of the measurements is only as good as the ability to operate the tool correctly. For optometrist, ophthalmologists, and the technicians working with them, there is not only an instruction manual for the Diaton Tonometer, but also a video which increases the ease of learning proper operation. With all the advantages and benefits offered to both patients and practitioners, the Diaton Tonometer http://www.TonometerDiaton.com offers comfort, accuracy, and convenience. It is a welcome new instrument to be found within the office of those entrusted to the care of our vision.
