The present invention relates to a contact lens for diagnosis and treatment of dry eye syndrome. The contact lens, according to the present invention, may diagnose dry eye syndrome by means of a change in an electric current occurring as a result of a field effect when a dry eye syndrome biomarker binds to a probe, and when dry eye syndrome is diagnosed, generates an electric current so that a gold film blocking a drug reservoir melts by the electric current, thereby enabling the release of a drug to be controlled.

An implementation cost of a line-scan optical coherence tomography (OCT) apparatus is reduced by miniaturizing a scanning mirror and using a light source with relaxed requirement in intensity uniformity. The mirror reflects a probe light beam to different parts of a sample for line-scanning the sample. A line-compressing lens compresses the probe light beam's cross-sectional length before the beam reaches the mirror, allowing the mirror to be miniaturized to reflect only the compressed beam. In generating a linear light beam that gives the probe light beam, a cascade of collimating lens, Powell lens and focusing lens generates the linear light beam from a raw light beam of a point source. A slit further filters the linear light beam to remove a peripheral portion thereof such that the linear light beam is substantially uniform in intensity even if an asymmetrical divergent light source is used.

An apparatus for measuring eyelid tension includes: a cylindrical body; a measuring sensor formed on an outer circumferential surface of the body; and a contact part formed at a longitudinal distal end of the body to come into contact with the body of a person to be measured.
