Telemetric non-contact intraocular pressure monitoring with an implanted sensor in patients with glaucoma: long-term safety report and monitoring data

Conclusion So far, our data suggest good long-term safety, tolerability and functionality of the implanted sensors up to almost ten years. Such sensors may help facilitate patients’ self-measurements of IOP. This disease monitoring method should be investigated further to determine if it helps improve wider patient experience, engagement and visual prognosis for those being treated for complex glaucoma.
