- a contact lens, including;
a temperature sensing device generating an electrical signal according to an ocular surface temperature; and
a signal transmitting device converting the electrical signal into a wireless signal; and
a receiving analyzer, including;
a signal receiving unit receiving the wireless signal; and
an analyzing unit analyzing and determining whether the ocular surface temperature is normal according to the wireless signal;
whereinthe analyzing unit determines whether an eye has any pathological changes according to a single value of the ocular surface temperature, a difference between two values of the ocular surface temperature at two time points, or an average or a variation of plural values of the ocular surface temperature at plural points; and
the analyzing unit determines that the eye has no myopia or pseudo-myopia when a difference between two values of the ocular surface temperature respectively at daytime and nighttime is below a lower threshold value, the analyzing unit determines that the eye may have myopia or pseudo-myopia when the difference is between the lower threshold value and a higher threshold value, or the analyzing unit determines that the eye has myopia or pseudo-myopia when the difference is above the higher threshold value.

Abstract
A system is used to measure, record and analyze ocular surface temperature. The system comprises a contact lens and a receiving analyzer. The contact lens includes a temperature sensing device and a signal transmitting device. The temperature sensing device obtains data by measuring ocular surface temperature, and the signal transmitting device transmits the data through wireless signals. The receiving analyzer includes a signal receiving unit and an analyzing unit. The signal receiving unit receives the wireless signals, and based on the wireless signals, the analyzing unit analyzes and determines whether the ocular surface temperature is normal.
