Abstract: The present invention relates to an intraocular pressure measuring and/or monitoring device (1) comprising a contact lens (10) presenting an inner surface (101) and an outer surface (102), and a pressure sensor (2) united with said contact lens (10) and located such that it is applied against an eye (8) of a user for sensing the intraocular pressure (IOP) of said eye (8) when said contact lens (10) is worn by said user, characterized in that said contact lens (10) comprises a soft portion (11) and a rigid portion (12), said rigid portion (12) being adapted to at least partially rigidify a central portion of the inner surface (101) of said contact lens (10) so as to maintain said rigidified inner surface (101) with a curvature radius adapted to flatten at least a portion of the eye surface in contact with the pressure sensor (2) so as to reach a pressure equilibrium around the pressure sensor (2) when said contact lens (10) is worn by said user.

Abstract: This disclosure provides a method for determining the likelihood of being at or beyond a certain rate and/or risk of visual field progression (VFP) of a user, that may include measuring ocular biomechanical properties (OBP) through a continuous-wear sensor placed on or implanted in the eye; recording the user's ocular biomechanical properties in the form of at least one OBP time series plot in a recorder, a processing step wherein at least one of a plurality of OBP parameters are extracted from the recorded OBP time series plot; a calculation step wherein the at least one of a plurality of OBP parameters are associated to VFP, and a determining step wherein one determines whether the visual field progression is at or beyond a certain VFP threshold and/or the probability that the said visual field progression is comprised within a specific range.
