Glaucoma is a common chronic disease caused by elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) that can cause damage to the optic nerve if left untreated.
Current methods to monitor IOP, the key biomarker for glaucoma, only permit measurements by a professional in a clinic or hospital, usually every few months, while other available home monitoring devices are either highly invasive and/or lack reliability and cost-efficacy.
Since IOP fluctuates, even throughout the day, such infrequent and limited testing gives an incomplete picture. This may lead to sub-optimal treatment and challenges in adjusting therapy in a timely manner.
We have developed a proprietary device and method to remotely monitor IOP using Artificial Intelligence-based visual analysis of ocular vascular pressure response.
Patients can easily and safely use our smart visor to monitor their IOP at any time of day at home or work. Nominal, controlled air pressure is applied within the visor while micro-video cameras capture the difference in response to pressure of internal vs. external blood vessels. Our AI algorithm analyses the processed videos to calculate the patient’s IOP. The results are immediately transmitted and accessible to the clinician for interpretation.
Our unparalleled contactless technology would be the first ideal IOP tracking solution to allow better glaucoma management, improving patient outcomes and improving economics for patients, clinics, hospitals and payers.
This cutting edge technology forms the basis for our future products, including a full eye-care remote diagnostics suite for early detection of cataract, exophthalmia, ocular motor disorders, visual field and more.
Ophthalmic Sciences aims to cross the last frontier in eye care: user-friendly remote glaucoma monitoring. Founded in 2019, the company is led by a team of medical and business veterans along with AI and image processing experts.
Targeting the $7 billion glaucoma market, Ophthalmic Sciences will work to expand its proprietary platform technology to include additional eyecare applications, such as for early detection of cataract & corneal edema and for the early identification of central/branch vascular occlusions and ocular motor disorders.
The company is part of eHealth Ventures, an accelerator providing access to world class clinical, operational and business networks.
