Digital eyewear procedures related to dry eyes

Abstract

Devices/techniques coupleable to patient sensors, ambient environment, and external sensory input. Devices/techniques receive/maintain information; correlate received/maintained information with measures associated with detecting/monitoring, predict, prevent/treat, and train/reward patient self-care, for dry eyes. Devices/techniques detect/monitor, predict, and prevent/treat dry eyes in real time; and train/reward patients to conduct self-care for dry eyes. The devices/techniques provide adjusted sensory inputs to prevent/treat dry eyes, or to train/reward patients to conduct self-care for dry eyes. The devices/techniques cooperate with other devices, including devices worn by nearby patients, to receive/maintain information about the ambient environment, or communicate with medical personnel. The devices/techniques adjust parameters they use, in response to received information that differs from predictions, to provide superior behavior, and communicate with other devices and medical personnel. Devices/techniques are combined with devices/techniques that perform similar functions for other conditions, migraines/photophobia, neuro-opthalmic disorders, and other ocular conditions, and for combinations of dry eyes with other conditions.
