Problem Statement: Glaucoma is a condition that damages the optic nerve, typically due to high eye pressure, leading to peripheral vision loss, blind spots, blurred vision, and eventually blindness if untreated. Current monitoring methods are invasive, expensive, or impractical for regular use. A non-invasive, affordable, and portable solution is required for real-time monitoring.

Existing Techniques: 1.Tonometry: Measures eye pressure. 2.Imaging (OCT): Scans eye structures. 3.Wearable Sensors: Tracks eye pressure/movement. 4.Visual Field Testing: Detects blind spots and vision damage. Solution: The project introduces a compact hardware solution that tracks intraocular pressure (IOP) and calculates the Arden Index for glaucoma diagnosis. Results are displayed on a user-friendly mobile app, enabling non-invasive, real-time monitoring for patients and clinicians.

Benefits: 1.Cost-Effective: Makes glaucoma monitoring affordable for everyone. 2.Time-Saving: Offers non-invasive eye care at the user's fingertips. 3.Enhanced Vision Monitoring: Provides real-time tracking for easy monitoring. Proof of Concept: Evaluates the device's ability to distinguish between positive and negative cases for glaucoma. Target Market: Target Audience: Glaucoma patients, at-risk individuals, ophthalmologists, eye-care centers, hospitals, and telemedicine providers. Global Market Size: $6.3 billion (CAGR 7.8%). India Market Size: ₹7,000 crore ($840 million). Planned Enhancements: 1.Enhanced AI Algorithms: For predictive analytics and personalized care. 2.Automatic Doctor Alerts: Real-time notifications for emergencies. 3.Cloud Integration: Centralized data storage for longitudinal analysis.
