11 . A method for monitoring ophthalmic subjects, the method comprising:
administering a stream of droplets to the eye of a subject in need thereof using an ejector device, said device including a memory for storing subject-specific data and a communication interface for communicating said stored data; and
storing said data in the memory of said device.
12 . A method of claim 11 , wherein said ejector device further includes an image capturing device for capturing images of the eye of said subject, and the method further comprises:
capturing images of said subject's eye; and
storing said images in the memory of said device.
13 . A method of claim 11 , further comprising communicating said stored data from said ejector device to a docking station, database or server, and/or user terminal.
14 . A method of claim 13 , further comprising analyzing the communicated data from said ejector device and adjusting administration of said stream of droplets to the eye of said subject as needed, based on said analysis.
15 . A method of claim 11 , wherein said subject is being treated for glaucoma, and said stream of droplets administered to the eye comprises a medicament for the treatment of glaucoma.
16 . A method of claim 15 , wherein said subject-specific data includes dosing regimen information related to the treatment of glaucoma.
17 . A method of claim 16 , wherein said subject-specific data includes information related to said subject's compliance with the dosing regimen.
18 . A method for monitoring ophthalmic subjects, the method comprising:
receiving subject-specific data from an ejector device, said ejector device configured for administering a stream of droplets to the eye of a subject in need thereof;
storing said data in at least one database;
analyzing the stored data; and
and adjusting administration of said stream of droplets to the eye of said subject as needed, based on said analysis.
19 . A method of claim 18 , wherein said ejector device further includes an image capturing device for capturing images of the eye of said subject, and the method further comprises:
wherein the subject-specific data includes image data.
20 . A method of claim 18 , wherein said subject is being treated for glaucoma, and said stream of droplets administered to the eye comprises a medicament for the treatment of glaucoma.
21 . A method of claim 15 , wherein said subject-specific data includes dosing regimen information related to the treatment of glaucoma.
22 . A method of claim 16 , wherein said subject-specific data includes information related to said subject's compliance with said dosing regimen.
23 . A method for diagnosis of ophthalmic subjects, the method comprising:
capturing images of a subject's eye using an ejector device, said device including an image capture device, memory for storing subject-specific data and a communication interface for communicating said stored data;
storing said images in the memory of said device; and
analyzing said images to thereby diagnose said subject based, at least in part, on analysis of said images.
