Zusammenfassung:The present invention provides a wirelessly-powered contact lens comprising a strain sensor capable of sensing the increase in intraocular pressure in real time, and a drug reservoir from which a drug is released according to the increase in the intraocular pressure to lower the intraocular pressure. The present invention may provide a personalized treatment system in which a drug is released according to the intraocular pressure of a glaucoma patient through the strain sensor and the drug reservoir by measuring the intraocular pressure in real time and appropriately releasing a relevant treatment drug. La présente invention concerne une lentille de contact alimentée sans fil comprenant un capteur de déformation apte à détecter l'augmentation de la pression intraoculaire en temps réel, et un réservoir de médicament à partir duquel un médicament est libéré en fonction de l'augmentation de la pression intraoculaire pour abaisser la pression intraoculaire. La présente invention peut fournir un système de traitement personnalisé dans lequel un médicament est libéré en fonction de la pression intraoculaire d'un patient atteint d'un glaucome par l'intermédiaire du capteur de déformation et du réservoir de médicament en mesurant la pression intraoculaire en temps réel et en libérant de manière appropriée un médicament de traitement approprié. 본 발명은 안압 상승을 실시간으로 감지할 수 있는 변형도 센서 및 안압 상승에 따라 약물이 방출되어 안압을 낮춰줄 수 있는 약물저장소를 포함하는 무선구동 콘택트렌즈를 제공한다. 본 발명에서는 상기 변형도 센서 및 약물저장소를 통해, 안압을 실시간으로 측정하고 그에 따른 치료 약물을 적절하게 방출하여 녹내장 환자의 안압 상태에 따라서 약물을 방출하는 개인 맞춤형 치료 시스템을 제공할 수 있다.
