Easyton vs Diaton Kareena Chawla
INTRODUCTION Measurement of intraocular pressure (IOP) has traditionally relied on corneal, applanation, and indentation measurement procedures. However. direct corneal measurements have many limitations which can be eliminated by using transpalpebral approaches to measurement of intraocular pressures. Currently, there is limited published data, regarding the new Easyton tonometer and its measurement properties in comparison to the well established transpalpebral Diaton tonometer. 1 This study offers early data, directly comparing IOP values collected using the new Easyton transpalpebral tonometer with IOP values collected using the Diaton tonometer. OBJECTIVES Describe the relationship and measurement properties between IOP values measured by the Easyton Tonometer and Diaton Tonometer. Determine if IOP measurements made by the Easyton and Diaton transpalpebral tonometers are sufficiently similar to substitute one for the other. METHODS Study des...
