Kanwarpal Singh has developed a device called the Dynamic Laminometer (DL)—a non-invasive diagnostic instrument for the rapid screening and early diagnosis of glaucoma. Currently the only instrument that can perform such advanced diagnostics, the equipment could contribute to the detection of glaucoma at an earlier stage, increasing the potential for limiting irreversible eye damage and preserving vision.
