Abstract: An eyeglasses frame is disclosed that includes a left rim and a right rim. Each of the left rim and the right rim has a medial side and a temporal side. The temporal side of one of the left rim and the right rim has a lens mounting edge and a blind recess that extends from the lens mounting edge. The eyeglasses frame also includes a camera enclosure that is disposed on a posterior segment of the temporal side of one of the left rim and the right rim. The camera enclosure extends from a first end adjacent to the lens mounting edge to a second end disposed posterior of the posterior segment of the one of the left rim and the right rim. The second end of the camera enclosure has an observation aperture, wherein an image viewing axis disposed through the observation aperture is angled medially and upwardly.
Abstract: A spectacles-mounted ophthalmic monitoring system may include a spectacles frame comprising a left rim and a right rim, an image sensor coupled with the spectacles frame to capture images of a field of view of an eye, and a processor. The processor may be configured to activate the image sensor to capture an image of the field of view, and identify a height of a tear film meniscus within the field of view of one or more images within the series of images.
