💧 Researchers have developed an electronics-free smart contact lens that can track glaucoma in real time and deliver medication automatically when eye pressure rises.

🔬 This all-polymer lens uses microfluidics to monitor eye pressure and features pressure-activated drug reservoirs, aiming to improve drug adherence for glaucoma patients.

📈 The prototype, detailed in a paper published April 8 in Science Translational Medicine, demonstrated effectiveness comparable to eye drops in rabbit tests and can hold medication for up to two weeks.
