▎ 摘  要

NOVELTY - Method for fabricating an electronic contact lens involves (a) providing a thin film structure comprising a device layer on a support layer in an aqueous medium, where the device layer comprises electronic components and is encapsulated by a protection layer; (b) positioning a contact lens underneath the thin film structure in the medium; and (c) affixing the thin film structure to the contact lens by removing the medium. USE - The method is useful for fabricating an electronic contact lens (claimed) used for treatment of ophthalmic diseases and conditions e.g. meibomian gland dysfunction. ADVANTAGE - The method provides a novel fabrication technology to construct industry-grade electronics on the semielliptical surface of commercial soft contact lenses, and offering the necessary biocompatibility, comfortability, breathability, and long-term wearability and provides a kit for treating an ophthalmic disease or condition in a subject.
