Abstract
A spectacles-mounted ophthalmic monitoring system may include a spectacles frame comprising a left rim and a right rim, an image sensor coupled with the spectacles frame to capture images of a field of view of an eye, and a processor. The processor may be configured to activate the image sensor to capture an image of the field of view, and identify a height of a tear film meniscus within the field of view of one or more images within the series of images.
