Pilot Prototyping and Feasibility Study of A Portable Non-Contact Air-Puff Tonometer with Robotic Soft Pneumatic Eye Massager

As the increasing usage of digital devices nowadays, eye strain has become a common health problem. Intraocular pressure (lOP) is a significant factor of eye strain and other various eye diseases, by measuring IOP, the strain level can be estimated. On the other hand, research has shown that massaging some particular muscles around the eyes can relieve the eye strain. Therefore, a new portable device is designed by combining the non-contact air-puff tonometer with air-pressure massager. It realizes both monitoring and treating functions to the eyes, and utilized Arduino for the feedback control. The device aims to provide an effective monitor and targeted treatment for people with eye health problem. In this paper, the hardware structure and Arduino software design of the device will be proposed, and the experiment results will be presented and analyzed.
