Alphabets Verily pauses project on glucose-sensing lens
Alphabet Inc`s Verily said on Friday it is pausing research on glucose-sensing lens, one of its earliest projects.
The search engine giant`s life sciences division started the project in 2014 with Alcon, Novartis` eye-care division, to better manage diabetes by putting sensors on a contact lens to measure glucose levels for people with the disease.
"Our clinical work on the glucose-sensing lens demonstrated that there was insufficient consistency in our measurements of the correlation between tear glucose and blood glucose concentrations to support the requirements of a medical device," Verily said https://blog.verily.com/2018/11/update-on-our-smart-lens-program-with.html.
