Diaton Tonometer provides reliable measurements and makes it possible to diagnose glaucoma in its early stages, allowing you 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.

Presenting Diaton tonometer at International Vision Expo West at Sands Resort, Las Vegas is a great opportunity to showcase unique non-corneal and non-contact capabilities of this new tonometry technology to thousands of optometrists and other eye care professionals.

In Review of Optometry interview Dr. May says – “Since the device does not touch the cornea, there is little risk of corneal abrasion or decreasing visual acuity.  Additionally, there is no dependence on corneal pachymetry.” Sterilization and anesthesia are not required, and the measurement range spans from 5mm Hg to 60mm Hg. A single measurement takes no longer than three seconds, and one set of batteries provides at least 1,500 measurements, according to the manufacturer.
