From the recent BiCOM press release:

BiCOM has been in business for 18 years and has managed to build a solid brand around this new and unique transpalpebral tonometry technology which allows to determine intraocular pressure (IOP) through the EYELID http://www.tonometerdiaton.com .  Traspalpebral (Diaton) Tonometry clientele consists of optometrists and ophthalmologists, military, nursing homes, hospitals, emergency rooms, general medical practitioners and family physicians, as well as some referred patients requiring day or night eye pressure monitoring.

In an interview with Roman Iospa, Chief Executive of BiCOM said, – “We plan to grow Diaton tonometer sales through our broader expansion internationally and continue to gain greater penetration of the market nationally, mainly due to greater awareness and an invaluable addition of new talent with new contacts and years of experience from market leading companies such as Alcon (NYSE:ACL), Abbott Laboratories (NYSE:ABT), Medtronic (NYSE:MDT), CIBA Vision, Novartis (NYSE:NVS), Kimberly-Clark (NYSE:KMB), Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ), GlaxoSmithKline (NYSE:GSK), Bausch & Lomb, Advanced Medical Optics, Pfizer (NYSE:PFE) and Allergan (NYSE:AGN) just to name a few…”

“Our transpalpebral (through the eyelid) Diaton tonometry is unique, effective and is irreplaceable in various situations where any other corneal tonometry methods (Goldmann, Tonopen, Air puff) simply can not be used”.  Transpalpebral approach is ideal for patients with corneal concerns like conjunctivitis, cornea pathology, keratitis, keratocone, keratoplastik, edema, erosion, high degree of ametropy or astigmatism, keratoprosthesis, or acquiring IOP following laser refractive (LASIK, LASEK, PRK) and other corneal surgeries, “Diaton tonometer has a number of indisputable advantages of measuring through the upper lid and over the sclera (no contact with cornea) without need of anesthetic drops, making the IOP measuring process handy and economical for the doctor and comfortable for the patient,” Mr. Iospa said.
