Claim 28:
29. Kit comprising:
an intraocular pressure measuring device (1) including: a contact lens (10) presenting an inner surface (101) and an outer surface (102), and
a pressure sensor (2) united with said contact lens (10) and located such that the pressure sensor can sense the interocular pressure (IOP) when the contact lens (10) is applied against an eye (8) of a user,
characterized in that said contact lens (10) comprises a first portion (11) and a second portion (12), said second portion (12) being adapted to at least partially rigidify a central portion of the inner surface (101) of said contact lens (10) so as to maintain said rigidified inner surface (101) with a curvature radius adapted to flatten at least a portion of the eye surface in contact with the pressure sensor (2) so as to reach a pressure equilibrium around the pressure sensor (2) when said contact lens (10) is worn by said user, wherein the pressure sensor (2) is nested in a recess in the second portion (12), the recess covered by the first portion; and
a portable recording device (6) configured for communicating with said intraocular pressure measuring device (1) and for storing data received from said intraocular pressure measuring device (1).
