Abstract
A system and method for remotely monitoring Inter Ocular Pressure (IOP) is disclosed. The system and method verify proper operation of glaucoma drainage, measure and potentially affect Intra-Ocular Pressure (IOP), and facilitate remote disease management of e.g. glaucoma, among other ocular diseases.
Claims16
A method of manufacturing a glaucoma inter ocular pressure (IOP) system, comprising:
- configuring the system to have a shell comprising eyelets, a reservoir, and a drain tube;
- integrating an arrangement of low-power electronics, at least one electronic sensors, and wireless telemetry to form a drainage device within the shell;
- configuring the arrangement of low-power electronics to convert at least one outputs from the at least one sensors into a signal;
- facilitating the arrangement such that the signal is wirelessly conveyed to a separate reader through the wireless telemetry;
- and
- locating the reader in close proximity to the drainage device during eventual use.
