OKKO Health, a leader in innovative eye health technology, is excited to announce its collaboration with the University of Plymouth. This groundbreaking project will test eye health and track early disease detection in extreme environments, beginning with the depths of a cave and soon to monitor astronauts’ vision in the vastness of space. The monitoring of astronauts’ health is a critical concern in space travel due to the hostile health impact of microgravity. In space, cerebrospinal fluid pressure increases upwards towards the brain. This pressure causes effects in the eyes and vision that can be measured and monitored. Insights into the impacts of long-duration space missions on astronaut brain health can be gained through sensitively measuring eye health. OKKO Health … Continue reading OKKO Health announce collaboration with the University of Plymouth to measure vision in extreme environments including space
