System and apparatus for eye drop administration compliance

A method for eye drop administration compliance, comprising:

• storing, in a memory, data of an eye drop administration regime of a subject;
• receiving, in a processor, signals from one or a plurality of capacitive sensors from one or a plurality of eye drop bottle pods, wherein each eye drop bottle pod from the one or said plurality of eye drop bottle pods is configured to hold an eye drop bottle, and comprises a housing with a first set of connectors on a first side of the housing and a second set of connectors on a second side of the housing;
• and
• determining, in the processor, from the received signals whether the subject administered eye drops into eyes of the subject from each eye drop bottle respectively held in each eye drop bottle pod of the one or said plurality of eye drop bottle pods in accordance with the eye drop administration regime data by computing change in the volume of a liquid in each eye drop bottle using capacitance measurements computed from the signals received from the one or said plurality of capacitive sensors.

A system for eye drop administration compliance, comprising:

• an eye drop bottle storage unit, comprising:
• one or a plurality of eye drop bottle pods, wherein each eye drop bottle pod of the one or said plurality of eye drop bottle pods is configured to hold an eye drop bottle, and comprises one or a plurality of capacitive sensors, and a housing with a first set of connectors on a first side of the housing and a second set of connectors on a second side of the housing;
• a memory configured to store data of an eye drop administration regime of a subject;
• communication circuitry to relay information about an administration of eye drops by the subject;
• and
• a processor configured to receive signals from the one or said plurality of capacitive sensors of each eye drop bottle pod, and to determine from the received signals whether the subject administered eye drops into eyes of the subject from each eye drop bottle respectively held in each eye drop bottle pod of the one or said plurality of eye drop bottle pods in accordance with the eye drop administration regime data by computing change in the volume of a liquid in each eye drop bottle using capacitance measurements computed from the signals received from the one or said plurality of capacitive sensors;
• and
• wherein the system further comprising a server, configured to receive the information relayed from the communication circuitry, wherein the server comprising:
• a server communication module configured to communicate with a communication module of the eye drop bottle storage unit;
• and
• a server processor configured to receive input data from a health care professional, to generate the eye drop administration regime of the subject based on the input data, to relay the eye drop administration regime of the subject to the eye drop bottle storage unit via the server communication module.
