BiCOM Inc. And Community Health Action Help To Prevent Blindness In Our Communities
In a Joint effort to raise awareness about the threat of glaucoma, BiCOM Inc. is joining forces with The Community Health Action of Staten Island. BiCOM will be helping to conduct intraocular “eye” pressure (IOP) screenings with their portable, non-invasive (through the eyelid) Tonometer Diaton and providing materials about glaucoma prevention to the public. The company greatly supports community outreach and awareness of Glaucoma. On World Glaucoma Day, BiCOM Inc. held a very successful screening event at The Staten Island Ferry. BiCOM Inc., cooperates with national and international for-profit and non-for-profit organizations to increase awareness and promote mass screenings with the help of Diaton Tonometer
Known as "the sneak thief of sight," glaucoma is a disease characterized by gradual loss of vision due to optic nerve damage. Many people do not notice the start of Glaucoma because peripheral vision is first to be lost. As the optic nerve becomes increasingly damaged, permanent vision loss and blindness can occur. 60 million Americans are at risk for developing glaucoma. The goal is to identify patients with increased intraocular pressure before any nerve damage has occurred so no vision loss ever develops. To protect your vision, have your eyes examined on a regular basis.
