Abstract
Eye health of a patient can be monitored and various ocular conditions treated such as using information about an intraocular pressure (IOP) characteristic of the patient, information about a blood pressure (BP) characteristic of the patient, and information about a patient therapy, such as from a patient treatment system. In an example, a quantitative ocular health index can be determined for a patient based on information about an IOP characteristic, a BP characteristic, and the patient therapy.

1-67. (canceled)
A patient treatment system to determine an ocular health index (OHI) value for a patient eye, the patient treatment system comprising:
- a processor circuit, in communication with a pump, the processor circuit configured to:
- receive a first indication of intraocular pressure (IOP) in the patient eye over a first time interval and a first indication of blood pressure (BP) from the patient over the first time interval;
- and
- generate the OHI value based at least in part on the first indication of IOP and the first indication of BP.
A method of using a patient treatment system to determine an ocular health index (OHI) value for a patient eye, the method comprising:
- receiving with a processor circuit a first indication of intraocular pressure (IOP) in the patient eye over a first time interval and a first indication of blood pressure (BP) from the patient over the first time interval;
- and
- generating the OHI value based at least in part on the first indication of IOP and the first indication of BP.
