Abstract
A device includes a contact lens, a corneal sensor that includes a circular trace of conduction paths located at or near an outer peripheral edge of the contact lens that surrounds an unobstructed area at a center region of the contact lens, and a connection wire coupled to the corneal sensor and configured to electrically couple to an external data acquisition system. Methods of fabricating the device may include providing a thin device that includes a sensor and a connection wire coupled to the sensor, transferring the sensor to a curvilinear inner surface of a contact lens, feeding the connection wire through the inner surface of the contact lens and out of an outer surface of the contact lens, and performing electrochemical polymerization of a conducting polymer material over the sensor to anchor the sensor to the inner surface of the contact lens.
