About GlakoLens

GlakoLens is a medical devices company developing biosensors based on proprietary technology, first of which is a wearable, continuous (24h) intra-ocular pressure (IOP) monitoring device for the (early) diagnosis and personalized management of ocular hypertension and management of glaucoma. GlakoLens’ product, GlakoSense Platform, is based on non-invasive biosensor technology that will enable continuous IOP monitoring for 24 hours. It is a complete monitoring system including sensor-incorporated contact lenses, readout/recording units, and data analytics service. Specifically, the product is comprised of an electrically passive sensor embedded in a comfortable disposable soft contact lens, and a wearable electronic system to take non-contact measurements from the sensor and to store the data. The placement of the disposable contact lens sensor and the wearable electronic system are carried out by trained medical staff in the clinic. The patient wears the products for 24 hours and returns to the clinic the next day, where the staff downloads the IOP fluctuation data from the device and deliver the results to the ophthalmologists for evaluation. GlakoSense Platform will enable the streamlined collection of previously unobtainable IOP fluctuation data that is also precious for scientific research. Additionally, it will become a valuable tool for the development of ocular hypertension drugs and associated clinical research.
