Exploring New Frontiers: Okko Health Ventures into Extreme Environments to Test Eye Health
๐OKKO Health, in collaboration with the University of Plymouth, is embarking on a groundbreaking journey to understand eye health in extreme environments, including the vast expanse of space. Through their innovative app, which was first put to the test in the challenging conditions of a Portuguese cave system, researchers are delving into the effects of confinement and sensory deprivation on visionโfactors crucial for space exploration.
๐ฐ๏ธStephanie Campbell, CEO of Okko Health, emphasises the significance of this venture, positioning the UK at the forefront of vision science space research. The app's resilience and adaptability under extreme conditions offer promising prospects for future space missions, where maintaining optimal eye health is paramount.
๐As the project progresses, Okko Health plans to push the boundaries even further by testing the app's efficacy in space itself. This endeavour not only validates the app's performance beyond Earth's confines but also promises invaluable insights into safeguarding astronauts' vision during extended space travel.
๐ฉโ๐In essence, Okko Health's exploration of extreme environments represents a transformative leap in vision science, offering a glimpse into the future of eye health assessment. Stay tuned as we witness the evolution of vision science and its implications for humanity's journeys into the unknown.
