Development of a Biomechanical Eye Assessment Instrument Console

The client faced difficulties in creating a robust, scalable, and secure instrument console capable of receiving and processing high-precision eye scan data from specialized controllers. The existing solutions lacked fully integrated data management, role-based access, and flexibility for deploying advanced measurement patterns, impeding accurate and repeatable assessments vital for diagnosis, treatment monitoring, and surgical planning.

A mid-to-large medical device company specializing in advanced ophthalmic diagnostic tools, requiring secure, scalable, and precise measurement systems for ocular tissue biomechanical properties.

• Develop a comprehensive eye scan data collection and visualization platform supporting multiple measurement patterns with high accuracy.
• Implement secure, role-based access controls and encrypted data transmission compliant with healthcare data privacy standards.
• Enable customizable examination points and detailed biomechanical measurements for enhanced diagnostic insights.
• Ensure seamless integration with external devices and data sharing with healthcare providers and systems.
• Design a scalable, multi-tier architecture capable of supporting international deployment and concurrent users.

• Multitier architecture with local and remote data exchange capabilities using TCP/IP socket communication with XML serialization.
• Role-based user and group access control with detailed permissions and data tenancy management.
• Secure data encryption using RSA algorithms for all patient and measurement data.
• Patient management system including data sharing across authorized healthcare personnel.
• Patient-specific and application-defined measurement patterns supporting customizable exam points.
• Visualization tools for detailed biomechanical measurements and point-specific data analysis.
• Export functionality for measurement data to external file formats for further analysis or sharing.

• External control devices for eye scan data acquisition
• Data sharing interfaces with electronic health records (EHR) and healthcare systems
• Potential integration with visualization and analytics tools

• Compliance with healthcare data privacy standards (e.g., HIPAA equivalent)
• High system availability and responsiveness to enable repeatable accurate assessments
• Support for international deployment with multi-language and localization
• Encryption of all sensitive data at rest and in transit
• Scalable to support increasing user base and data volume over time

The successful development of this multi-tier, secure, and flexible eye biomechanical assessment system will enable healthcare providers to conduct highly accurate, repeatable, and detailed ocular measurements. This will improve diagnostic precision, support better treatment outcomes, facilitate post-surgical monitoring, and enhance the overall quality of ophthalmic care across global markets.
