BiCOM Inc. has revealed an advanced transpalpebral Diaton tonometer. Diaton Tonometry is a unique approach to measuring intraocular pressure THROUGH THE EYELID - non-contact (no contact with the cornea), no anesthesia or sterilization is required. BiCOM's pen-like, hand-held, portable device is perfect for measuring eye pressure and helps ophthalmologists and optometrists in diagnosis and prevention of blindness caused by glaucoma. This ophthalmic device is irreplaceable for mass glaucoma screenings.

This new transpalpebral methodology has received the Gold Medal at the International Exhibition of Innovation Research and New Technology - "Brussels Eureca" & the Gold Medal at the International Exhibition of Research and new Technology in Geneva. Portability, safety and simplicity make the technology ideal for a wide range of applications: for mass screening of the population, at the patient's bedside, in geriatrics homes, in children hospitals, for the military and for home use.

Says Mr. Boris Kun, President of BiCOM Inc: "Diaton tonometer is a revolutionary device and signifies a new stage in Optometry and Ophthalmology!"

Diaton Tonometer is the perfect solution in the following cases when the use of other devices is problematic or impossible:

*mass prophylactic screening of patients;

*IOP control during clinical observation of glaucoma patients;

*ortoclinostatical probe, as an additional test to diagnose glaucoma and during select the adequate hypotensive therapy;

ophthalmotone monitoring (even at night time);

*IOP measuring during contact correction (lenses are not taken out),

*IOP measuring in immobilized patients;

*IOP measuring in children.

*on patients with the following conditions: chronic conjunctivitis, cornea pathology, including keratitis, keratotone, cornea dimness, after penetrating keratoplastics, keratoprosthesis, laser refractive correction of the eyesight, high degree of ametropy, astigmatism;

*on patients with medicinal allergies;

*Lasik/ PRK (recent clinical trials have proved that Diaton is the only device that can be used for IOP measurement right after these surgeries)

Diaton tonometer is a perfect device for mass screenings for glaucoma for any age group. Undiagnosed and untreated, glaucoma can cause blindness. Glaucoma is the leading cause of blindness in all age groups - from babies to senior citizens. Everyone needs to get diagnosed to preserve eyesight.
