S2 Ep678: New Eye Imaging Chip Technology To Revolutionise Monitoring Of Eye Conditions
Update: 2024-11-01
Description
Siloton, a Bristol-based health technology startup, has secured £860,000 to progress the commercial rollout of its groundbreaking eye imaging chip technology, which could help address the UK’s most common cause of sight loss.
Siloton’s technology aims to make the diagnosis and monitoring of a range of treatable retinal diseases more affordable and accessible, by compressing a tabletop-worth of heavy, expensive, and fragile components onto a single chip smaller than a £1 coin. The company says the technology could save the NHS over £1 billion annually and allow patients to monitor their condition at home, rather than having to regularly attend hospitals.
RNIB Connect Radio’s Toby Davey caught up with Siloton's Chief Executive Dr Alasdair Price to find out more about this ground breaking eye imaging chip technology, what form it might take and when patients will be able to start monitoring their eye conditions from home rather than having to go for regular eye Hospital Clinic Appointments.
