Abstract: Generally, a machine may include a processor and a memory connected to the processor, where the memory stores instructions executed by the processor to determine first and second properties related to dry eye symptoms of a patient. The properties may be used to form a dry eye forecast. A treatment recommendation may be selected based at least in part upon the dry eye forecast. The treatment recommendation may be supplied to a device.

Abstract: A stimulation system for treating a condition (e.g., dry eye, Meibomian gland disease) of a subject includes a stimulator configured to deliver a stimulus to external facial tissue of the subject, at least one sensor configured to detect a characteristic of the subject, and a control system in communication with the sensor and configured to adjust the stimulus at least partially based on the detected subject characteristic. In some variations, the control system may be configured to adjust the stimulus at least partially based on a detected environmental condition. The stimulator may be configured to activate a nerve of the subject, thereby increasing tear production. The stimulation system may, for example, include a device configured to be worn by a subject such as eyeglasses or a mask, or held by a subject such as handheld stimulator device.
