Equipment to help people flush 'crocodile tears'
It may sound unbelievable, but recently a device with a wireless controller has been developed to stimulate the production of natural tears, which is very useful in treating patients with dry eye syndrome. .
In the world today, there are tens of millions of people suffering from dry eye syndrome, the term used to refer to tear film due to reduced secretion or rapid evaporation of tears, leading to damage the corneal and conjunctival surface (mucosa covered with sclera or white), causing dry eye symptoms.
Disorders of dry eyes cause dysfunction of tear film and cause discomfort for patients
A tiny device implanted under the skin helps stimulate the production of natural tears for a long time being put into clinical trials. This device increases the amount of tears produced by providing micro-pulses to the lacrimal gland. The device is inserted into the mucous lining of the nasal sinus cavity or the skin under the eyebrows. Moreover, users can adjust the amount of tears released with a wireless controller.
This useful invention is a wireless device designed to stimulate natural tear production in patients with dry eyes
Hopefully this useful invention soon appeared on the market to address the worries of millions of patients
This invention is the brainchild of Michael Ackermann, a biological engineer, a former member of Stanford Biodesign. Michael is currently the President and CEO of Oculeve, Inc., a startup company with 20 employees who treat patients with dry eye syndrome. The story of how Ackermann took a crazy idea and turned it into a product that could help millions of people was posted in the latest issue of Inside Stanford Medicine.
