Abstract

Glaucoma is a prevalent neurological disease with a global impact, affecting about 65 million individuals. The condition is characterized by a gradual deterioration of the optic nerve, leading to permanent visual impairment that cannot be reversed. An increased intraocular pressure (IOP) in the eye is regarded to be one of the most significant preventable risk factors associated with the condition. The chapter presents a novel IOP monitoring system designed for individuals with glaucoma, which utilizes the capabilities of the Internet of things (IoT) and machine learning. IoT sensors monitor IOP noninvasively while transmitting real-time data to a hub and cloud servers. Early IOP intervention is possible using machine learning methods that identify minor IOP variations. When IOP rises over predetermined limits, an alarm system warns both patients and medical staff. Accessing data and receiving individualized suggestions via a simple interface encourages patient participation and treatment adherence. There are several benefits to using this system, including constant monitoring, early discovery, individualized treatment, and data portability. Minimizing in-person checkups may save individuals and healthcare systems money. The system’s clinical performance depends on addressing data security, sensor accuracy, user uptake, and EHR (electronic health record) integration. In conclusion, our IoT and Machine Learning-based IOP monitoring system might improve glaucoma therapy and patient outcomes and quality of life.
