Using compressor.js in React Native Expo app : ReferenceError: Can't find variable: Image

I am trying to use one of the javascript package of image compression i.e. compressorjs in React Native Expo App. It is giving me following ReferenceError:

Unhandled promise rejection: ReferenceError: Can't find variable: Image]
at node_modules/compressorjs/dist/compressor.js:680:19 in Compressor
at components/places/Image-Picker.js:49:29 in CompressionHandler

The documentation link of this compressorjs: https://github.com/fengyuanchen/compressorjs Here is my code where image compression function is carried out:

const CompressionHandler = (pic) => {
    console.log("PIC Type: ", typeof (pic));
    console.log("object Pic: ", pic)
    const returnResult = new Compressor(pic.uri, {      // line #49
        quality: 0.6,
        beforeDraw(context, canvas) {
            context.fillStyle = '#fff';
            context.fillRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);
            context.filter = 'grayscale(100%)';
        },
        drew(context, canvas) {
            context.fillStyle = '#fff';
            context.font = '2rem serif';
            context.fillText('watermark', 20, canvas.height - 20);
        },
        success(result) {
            console.log("Result-----", result);
            console.log("Result URL-----", result.uri);
            setCompressedImage(result)
        },
        error(err) {
            console.log("Error occurred - ", err);
        }
    })
    return returnResult;
}

Output I received:

PIC Type:  object
object Pic:  Object {
  "cancelled": false,
  "height": 1756,
  "type": "image",
  "uri": "file:///data/user/0/host.exp.exponent/cache/ExperienceData/%2540anonymous%252Ffavourite-places-6b9227ff-cdbe-4575-87fb-93a41260822c/ImagePicker/4e0d89c3-d4c1-4443-8dd9-98e400fc4af1.jpg",
  "width": 3120,
}

[Unhandled promise rejection: ReferenceError: Can't find variable: Image]
at node_modules/compressorjs/dist/compressor.js:680:19 in Compressor
at components/places/Image-Picker.js:49:29 in CompressionHandler

Following some lines from node_modules/compressorjs/dist/compressor.js:

function Compressor(file, options) {
      _classCallCheck(this, Compressor);

      this.file = file;
      this.image = new Image();  // line #680 >> ReferenceError at this line
      this.options = _objectSpread2(_objectSpread2({}, DEFAULTS), options);
      this.aborted = false;
      this.result = null;
      this.init();
    }

If anyone know how to solve this, please let me know. Thanks in advance.
