Tonometer Diaton Headlined At SECO 2009 Conference
Tonometer Diaton is on the leading edge of Glaucoma detection with it's through the eyelid tonometry method. Non-contact, painless, simple and accurate, the device is exhibited at SECO 2009 conference in Atlanta, Georgia.

LONG BEACH, NY, March 07, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Tonometer Diaton is presented at SECO 2009, Atlanta. This new wave of tonometry is on the forefront of Glaucoma prevention and detection, with no calibration required, no contact with cornea, no anesthetic drops required, simple to use and ideal for young and old. The SECO conference takes place at the Georgia World Congress Center in Georgia.

Glaucoma Eye Test Tonometer Diaton aims to make measurement of intraocular pressure indicating Glaucoma as routine as a blood pressure screening, to prevent vision loss before it happens. Because Glaucoma is the number one cause of Blindess in the United States, and loss of vision is usually peripheral at first, many do not realize they have the "sneak thief of sight" before the damage has been done.

SECO 2009 is a conference serving optometrists, ophthalmologists, opticians, and ophthalmic professionals who wish to learn new skills, acquire further knowledge of their field and to network with other eye care professionals.

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.

Mr. Roman Iospa, CEO of BiCOM Inc. has pointed out, "Diaton tonometer allows to do more through mass glaucoma screenings in adults and children without the use of anesthesia drops and, more importantly, with no contact with cornea, since Diaton tonometer measures intraocular pressure through the upper eyelid, which in its turn does not require correction for corneal thickness and dramatically decreases a possibility of infection. "

SECO 2009 is an opportunity for ophthalmologists and optometrists to obtain free training and to learn of the clinically proven benefits of Diaton (trans-palpebral) tonometry.

Vision Systems Inc. (VSI) http://www.patternless.com will be presenting Tonometer Diaton at Booth # 437, Patternless Edger's, Traditional Lane and Pre-Test Equipment, HRT Retinal Tomographers and Fundus Cameras for optometrists, ophthalmologists, opticians, and ophthalmic professionals at all career levels.

"Diaton tonometry" is a vanguard approach to measuring intraocular pressure (IOP) through the Eyelid. Non-Contact (no contact with cornea), no anesthesia or sterilization required with this pen-like, hand-held, portable tonometer.
