The Utility of Diaton Tonometer Measurements in Patients With Ocular Hypertension, Glaucoma, and Glaucoma Tube Shunts: A Preliminary Study for its Potential Use in Keratoprosthesis Patients

Abstract: Diaton tonometry has a large margin of error compared with GAT in patients with ocular hypertension, glaucoma, and glaucoma tube shunts. However, given the current lack of an objective and quantitative method of IOP measurement in KPro patients, Diaton tonometry may be useful in this population as a supplement to digital palpation.

“…Intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements were made with the Diaton tonometer (BICOM, San Diego, California, USA) as per our online video demonstration,19 20 and careful inspection of the optic nerve was performed at each postoperative visit. When indicated, nerve fibre layer analysis and visual field testing were performed.…”

“…The advantages of this device are measurements that can be performed by anyone after a brief training session, a topical anesthetic is not needed and it causes minimal patient discomfort. When compared with Goldmann applanation, Diaton demonstrated a moderate correlation acceptable for glaucoma screening but not as a substitute for Goldmann applanation in the management of glaucoma patients [40][41][42][43].…”

“…Der intraokulare Druck kann lediglich palpatorisch odermit bislang ungeklärter Präzisionmittels transpalpebralem Impressionstonometer abgeschätzt werden und bei Verdacht auf Erhöhung auch nur systemisch mittels Mannitol oder Acetazolamid gesenkt werden (▶ Abb. 3) [3,8]. Allerdings können der Papillenbefund (z.…”
