    Google has announced that it is testing a prototype for a contact lens that would help people with diabetes manage their disease.


 


    In a press release distributed Thursday, the company said that the lens it is designing would measure glucose in tears continuously using a wireless chip and miniaturized glucose sensor. Google says that using the lenses would be a less invasive method of measuring glucose levels than finger-pricking.

That pink is hard to read. My eyes hurt now...

Just highlight it, as if you were going to copy it.

 

I am wondering how the glucose measurement would be communicated to the user.  Maybe an RFID reader of some sort?

Don't know, but if they pull this off it would be amazing...
