Diaton Tonometer

Discover the Revolutionary Diaton Tonometer: Transforming Eye Pressure Measurement

The Diaton Tonometer stands at the forefront of eye care technology, redefining the approach to measuring intraocular pressure (IOP) with its innovative, safe, and user-friendly design. Ideal for both clinical and mobile settings, the Diaton Tonometer ensures precise and reliable IOP readings, setting a new standard in patient care and safety.

Unparalleled Safety and Precision

• Infection Prevention Solution: The Diaton Tonometer offers a non-invasive measurement through the eyelid and sclera, eliminating direct contact with the mucous membrane or cornea. This approach significantly reduces the risk of infection, making it a safer alternative compared to traditional contact and non-contact tonometers.
• Accurate Through Eyelid Measurement: Unique in its ability to measure IOP through the eyelid and over the sclera, Diaton provides accurate readings independent of central corneal thickness (CCT), ensuring reliability across varied patient profiles.
• Effortless and Comfortable: Experience quick, puff-free, and painless IOP measurements, perfect for children and adults alike. With Diaton, the process is simplified, requiring no sterilization and adhering to the highest sterilization and disinfection standards set by the Joint Commission.

Enhanced Convenience and Efficiency

• Versatile and Economical: Diaton eliminates the need for rubber covers, plastic tips, or proparacaine, making it a latex-free, environmentally friendly, and cost-efficient solution for practices.
• Pre-calibrated for Immediate Use: Ready to use out of the box, Diaton saves valuable time and effort with its pre-calibrated design, negating the need for routine calibration.
• Independent of Corneal Variability: With Diaton, there’s no need for pachymetry adjustments, as IOP measurements are not affected by variations in corneal thickness. This independence from CCT variability means no additional equipment purchases, further enhancing its cost efficiency.
• User-Friendly: Designed for ease of use, Diaton can be operated by any trained personnel, supported by easy-to-follow instructional videos available in multiple languages.

Adaptable and Patient-Friendly

• Contact Lens Compatibility: Diaton uniquely allows for accurate IOP measurements without the need to remove contact or scleral lenses, offering unparalleled convenience for both practitioners and patients.
• Flexible Measurement Posture: Capable of delivering precise IOP readings in both sitting and supine positions, Diaton does not require special setups or ophthalmic chairs.
• Designed for Today’s Health Concerns: With the ability to measure IOP while maintaining social distancing protocols, Diaton ensures compliance and safety in the current health landscape.

Key Features

• Handheld and Portable: Diaton’s digital, pen-like design is non-contact and portable, offering the ultimate in convenience and mobility for IOP measurement.
• Unique IOP THROGH EYELID or Diaton as unique Non-corneal tonometry:Corneal tonometry, including the widely used Goldmann applanation tonometry and other similar methods, may be influenced by various corneal characteristics. These factors can affect the accuracy of intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements.
• Here are several reasons why the cornea can impact the outcomes of corneal tonometry:
  1. Central Corneal Thickness (CCT): A key factor affecting IOP measurements. Thicker corneas can lead to overestimation, while thinner corneas may result in underestimation of the true IOP.
  2. Corneal Rigidity: The biomechanical properties of the cornea, such as its rigidity or elasticity, can influence the force required to applanate (flatten) the cornea, thus affecting IOP readings.
  3. Corneal Curvature: Abnormal corneal curvature, as seen in conditions like keratoconus, can distort tonometry readings due to the uneven distribution of pressure across the corneal surface.
  4. Corneal Scarring or Opacity: Scars or opacity on the cornea can interfere with the tonometer’s ability to accurately measure the force needed for applanation, potentially leading to inaccurate IOP measurements.
  5. Corneal Edema: Swelling of the cornea can alter its thickness and biomechanical properties, impacting the accuracy of tonometry readings.
  6. Previous Corneal Surgery: Surgical procedures such as LASIK or PRK that alter the cornea’s shape and thickness can significantly affect the results of corneal tonometry, necessitating adjustments or alternative measurement techniques.
  7. Corneal Astigmatism: High levels of astigmatism can lead to variations in corneal thickness and shape across different meridians, complicating the applanation process and potentially skewing IOP measurements.
  8. Ocular Surface Disease: Conditions affecting the surface of the eye, such as dry eye syndrome, can influence the cornea’s response to the tonometry probe, potentially leading to inaccuracies in IOP assessment.

  Due to these factors, alternative tonometry methods like the Diaton Tonometer, which measures IOP through the eyelid and bypasses the cornea, can provide more reliable results in patients with atypical corneal characteristics or conditions.
