Closed loop glaucoma drug delivery system

摘要

A device implantable into an eye of a patient for treatment of glaucoma. The device has an implantable sensor configured to measure at least one characteristic of the eye. The implantable sensor is sized for implantation into the eye. The device also has an implantable processor coupled to the sensor and configured to receive the measurement of the at least one characteristic of the eye and generate a signal based on the received measurement. Additionally, the device has an implantable actuator coupled to the processor and operable to release a dosage of a therapeutic agent into the eye in response to the signal from the implantable processor.
