Device to directly monitor intra ocular pressure by a person based on pattern and colour changes
First Claim
1. A device to monitor Intra Ocular Pressure by the person himself by looking at changes in patterns and colour of the device, in the mirror and through magnifying attachment, the device comprising of a rigid base with background pattern on which is attached an elastomer with counter pattern and pattern of hologram and diffraction grating of different spacing to give colour changes. A layer of biocompatible polymer encloses the whole structure. The devise helps Ophthalmologists to monitor efficacy and dosage of drugs given to control Intra Ocular Pressure.

Abstract
A Device which enables a person to see for himself changes in Intra Ocular Pressure when he looks at his eye in the Mirror, in the routine course of everyday, as every one likes to see his Own face and eyes in the Mirror everyday. The device being Tiny and inserted surgically with minimum incision between Iris and Cornea, enables early indication of IOP in people with high risk of Glaucoma due to high blood pressure and genetic reasons and old age, the early indication enabling timely treatment before retinal damage. The device works on pattern changes due to pressure change which is compared with fixed background pattern and changes in spacing between lines of Diffraction grating and Hologram leading to colour changes due to interference effect of light. Mirror with an area of concave surface and Magnifying device along with comparison Chart enables proper monitoring of drug efficacy.
