This technology will save thousands of lives! The start-up firm CNOGA from Israel, has developed a tiny device to replace the standard diabetes test strip kits, painfully used by millions of people multiple times a day. In what is a world-first, instead of having to draw blood to test oneself using a needle test strip, a patient would insert his or her finger into this camera technology machine, the "TensorTip Hemoximeter," to have quick, painless and bloodless readings taken.

Google is known to be working on contact lenses that can test blood sugar levels, but they are still a ways off as far as I know. This device might also be more accessible to people than would be contact lenses.
As a T1 diabetic this has the potential to be truly life changing.
Amazing! I hope it gets FDA approval fast and you are able to get one!
That would be amazing.
