Home glaucoma monitoring

Glaucoma monitoring,
from home.

Glaucosim runs the standard glaucoma battery at home — visual field, contrast sensitivity, acuity, anterior segment imaging and drop adherence — in minutes, with voice guidance. Your eye-care professional reviews everything before your next appointment.

How it works

Three steps from sign-up to your first review.

No app store, no installation. Open the browser, sign in, take a few minutes for each exam. The data goes to your eye-care professional automatically.

Step 01

Create your account

Five fields. Then a short medical-history intake — diagnosis, drops, prior surgery, family history. You can edit anything later.

Step 02

Take the exams

Voice-guided visual field, contrast sensitivity, acuity, anterior segment recording, IOP screening, and a quality-of-life questionnaire. About 20 minutes for a full battery.

Step 03

Doctor review

Your data lands on a clean dashboard for your ophthalmologist. They flag changes, send notes, and adjust the cadence of your next checks.

What we capture

Glaucoma-relevant signal — captured at home.

Each module is a focused, evidence-based proxy for a clinical test. Run them on cadence; trends do the talking.

Contrast sensitivity

Pelli-Robson digit ladder. Picks up signal that often precedes measurable field loss.

~3 minlogCS score
Visual acuity

ETDRS-style staircase. Distance and near. Snellen, E-game, HOTV, Landolt-C variants.

~2 minper eye
Anterior segment

Phone-camera handoff. Ten voice-guided takes per eye, automatic quality and gaze checks.

~5 minper eye
IOP screening Research β

Acoustic, contactless pressure screening. Laptop emits, phone captures. Experimental.

~5 minboth eyes
Quality of life

NEI VFQ-25 — the validated questionnaire for vision-related quality of life in glaucoma.

~6 minonce per cycle
Drop adherence

Per-drop schedule with one-tap log. Weekly chart, missed-dose tracking, gentle reminders.

30 sec / dosecontinuous
Symptom diary

Halos, eye pain, blurred vision, redness. Time-stamped entries surface progression cues.

For patients

Take an active part in your treatment.

Most glaucoma damage is silent. You can't feel the field shrink, you can't feel the pressure swing. Glaucosim makes the invisible part visible — to you and to your doctor.

  • Run the exams when it fits your schedule.
  • See your trends month over month.
  • Get a real review of every session by an eye-care professional.
  • Track your drops and surface adherence issues early.
For clinicians

The data between visits, on one dashboard.

Glaucoma needs more than two data points a year. Glaucosim gives your patients a structured way to capture vision data at home, and you a clean place to triage it.

  • Invite patients with a single link — no IT setup.
  • Set the cadence per patient: which tests, how often.
  • Review and flag changes, send a note back to the patient.
  • Export to PDF or push to your records system.
Built on the literature

A glaucoma-first product.

Every module maps to a validated clinical test or a well-documented surrogate. We cite our sources in-app, in reports, and in the science deck.

01 — Field

Visual field

Confrontation grid with 24-2 and 10-2 patterns. Voice-paced presentations, webcam fixation monitoring, and an HFA-style readout with MD, PSD, VFI and total / pattern deviation maps per eye.

02 — Contrast

Contrast sensitivity

Pelli-Robson digit ladder run at calibrated screen size. Picks up signal that often precedes measurable field loss, especially in early glaucoma.

Pelli & Robson 1988 · Hawkins IOVS 2003
03 — Acuity

Visual acuity

Distance and near optotypes — Snellen, HOTV, Landolt-C, E-game. Calibrated to the physical screen size before each run so logMAR is comparable visit-to-visit.

04 — Quality of life

NEI VFQ-25

The validated vision-specific quality-of-life questionnaire used across the glaucoma literature as a patient-reported anchor for functional change.

Mangione · Arch Ophthalmol 2001
05 — Anterior segment

Anterior segment

Phone-handoff capture with MediaPipe FaceMesh gaze guidance and on-device quality checks. Ten takes per eye, automatic poster image, reviewable clips.

06 — Pressure

IOP screening β

Acoustic, contactless approach using a laptop emitter paired with a phone capture. Surfaced as screening only — not a substitute for tonometry — while research validation continues.

Glaucosim Research · ongoing validation
07 — Adherence

Drops & adherence

Per-drop schedule and adherence log, reported weekly. Designed to surface the < 50% adherence cliff before the next OCT instead of after.

Friedman · Ophthalmology 2007
08 — Symptom diary

Symptom diary

One-tap log for halos, eye pain, blurred vision and redness. Time-stamped entries flow into the same trend view, so subjective cues are reviewed alongside the objective signal.

Built by

I built Glaucosim because two appointments a year can't catch a disease that damages the optic nerve silently, fiber by fiber, between visits.

I'm Mauro Gobira. I trained in ophthalmology, and I spent years watching patients fall into the gap between in-office visits. Glaucosim is the layer I wished existed: a home cadence of clinically grounded tests, a place for the eye-care professional to see the trend instead of just the latest reading, and a way to catch drift before the next OCT.

Every module ships only when the science holds. Every report is meant to be read by an eye-care professional, not to replace one.
