Glaucoma Eye Test through the EYELID presented at Florida Osteopathic Medical Association FOMA 2009

Feb. 18, 2009 - PRLog -- Diaton tonometer (Glaucoma Eye Test) is exhibited at Florida Osteopathic Medical Association FOMA 2009, Ft.Lauderdale. Diaton Tonometry is a NEW approach to measuring intraocular pressure (IOP) THROUGH THE EYELID - painless, no contact with the cornea, no anesthesia or sterilization is required. BiCOM’s pen-like, portable, hand-held device is ideal for measuring eye pressure and helps in diagnosis and prevention of blindness caused by Glaucoma. Tonometer Diaton is irreplaceable for mass glaucoma screenings in children and adults.

FDA approved - this unique trans-palpebral and trans-scleral 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.

Diaton Tonometer is intended for use by Inpatient & Outpatient Clinics such as Hospitals, Emergency Rooms, Nursing & Elderly Homes, General & Specialty Practitioners as well as Ophthalmologists and Optometrists.

Glaucoma is the leading cause of blindness in all age groups - from children to senior citizens. Everyone needs to get diagnosed to prevent blindness.

Besides determining the potential for glaucoma onset, Tonometer Diaton can also be used for monitoring treatment effectiveness throughout the day. Unlike other tonometers, Diaton can be used repeatedly during the day with no harmful effect on the eye.

MicroVas by Phycon Medical (http://www.phyconmed.com 1.800.749.5201) will also be exhibiting at FOMA 2009. MicoVas is used to increase blood flow and raise pressure gradients across capillary beds by significantly increasing venous return, the primary controller of cardiac output. Not only does MicroVas increase cellular oxygen levels within minutes but the levels remain sustained, resulting in faster healing not seen previously. MicroVas also strengthens muscles, stimulating a three mile walk during the usual 45 minute office therapy.
