Transscleral DIATON Tonometer Gets Thumbs Up at the American Academy of Ophthalmology AAO Meeting in New Orleans

www.TonometerDiaton.com Team Diaton Tonometer showcases its innovative, "through the eyelid" and sclera glaucoma diagnostic tonometry technology at AAO 2017 meeting in New Orleans, LA. Ophthalmologists find new ways to implement this non-invasive, cornea independent tonometry technology in cases where no other corneal tonometry devices can get an accurate intraocular pressure (IOP) results. Diaton obtains the IOP measurement through the upper eyelid, overlaying tarsus and sclera, not via the cornea - making the technology unique and independent of corneal biomechanics.

Non-corneal Di<strong>at</strong>on tonometer is particularly useful <strong>in</strong> cases where standard direct<br />

applan<strong>at</strong>ion (corneal) tonometry is difficult or not viable, such as with pedi<strong>at</strong>ric p<strong>at</strong>ients,<br />

<strong>in</strong> presence <strong>of</strong> certa<strong>in</strong> corneal p<strong>at</strong>hology, edema, <strong>in</strong>fection, follow<strong>in</strong>g corneal surgery,<br />

KPro and <strong>in</strong> cases <strong>of</strong> eye trauma.<br />

Emil W. Chynn, MD, FASC from Park Avenue LASEK st<strong>at</strong>ed, – “As a Cornea-Refractive<br />

tra<strong>in</strong>ed specialist, I encounter many situ<strong>at</strong>ions where Goldmann read<strong>in</strong>gs are <strong>in</strong>herently<br />

<strong>in</strong>accur<strong>at</strong>e–like post-LASIK, <strong>in</strong> cases <strong>of</strong> corneal edema, scarr<strong>in</strong>g, ker<strong>at</strong>oconus, post-


ker<strong>at</strong>opros<strong>the</strong>sis or transplant. In such cases, it’s both <strong>in</strong>valuable and reassur<strong>in</strong>g to<br />

have <strong>the</strong> Di<strong>at</strong>on device available to measure IOP th<strong>at</strong>’s <strong>in</strong>dependent <strong>of</strong> corneal<br />

p<strong>at</strong>hology”<br />

"It works," said Dr. Mark L<strong>at</strong><strong>in</strong>a, glaucoma specialist (Harvard / MEEI) and <strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>ventor<br />

<strong>of</strong> Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT), after reveal<strong>in</strong>g results <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> study titled:<br />

"Accuracy <strong>of</strong> Transpalpebral <strong>Tonometer</strong> Di<strong>at</strong>on Compared to Goldmann Applan<strong>at</strong>ion<br />

<strong>Tonometer</strong> <strong>in</strong> Normal and Glaucom<strong>at</strong>ous Eyes".<br />

Roman Iospa, CEO <strong>of</strong> BiCOM Inc., added – “We’re <strong>at</strong> Di<strong>at</strong>on are humble to get such an<br />

community <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> newly found applic<strong>at</strong>ions <strong>of</strong> our transpalpebral and transscleral<br />

technology, where cornea is not a factor”.<br />
