Abstract
A contact lens for intraocular observation capable of optically recognizing an inner portion of an eyeball by contacting the contact lens on a surface of a cornea of an eye to be inspected through a light ray transmitted through an inner portion of the contact lens comprising: an optical path dividing member provided on an optical path for leading a light ray incident on the inner portion of the contact lens to the eye to be inspected for dividing a portion of the light ray on said optical path; and an index provided at a position approximately optically conjugate with a portion to be observed of the eye to be inspected on a divided optical path divided by the optical path dividing member. The portion to be observed and said index can optically be recognized by at least partially superposing a first image of the index on a second image of the portion to be observed.
