If you read through the posts you may get an idea yourself.

some problems that could be sorted out by a designer are:

identifying the different types of insulin vials via colour/writing/pens
visibility of the doses on a pen injector/counting the units for visually impaired people
improvement in design of blood testing lancet devices to give less pain
