Contact lens type flexible microelectrode for recovery of facial paralysis

Abstract

The invention discloses a contact lens type flexible microelectrode for recovery of facial paralysis in the technical field of medical appliances, comprising a contact lens structure layer, an electrode circuit layer and a contact lens covering layer which are orderly arranged to form a composite structure, and a through hole penetrating through the composite structure; the contact lens structurelayer is in direct contact with an eyeball; a connecting circuit and an electrode point connected with the connecting circuit are arranged outside the peripheral naked eye vision field of the electrode circuit layer. The contact lens type flexible microelectrode for recovery of facial paralysis is simple and convenient to operate, and by use of the same, a surgical operation is not required; and therefore, the contact lens type flexible microelectrode for recovery of facial paralysis is a solution capable of effectively solving the difficulty of closing orbicularis oculi muscle.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device in the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a contact lens type flexible microelectrode for facial paralysis rehabilitation. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the continuous advancement of micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS: Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) technology, the application range of micro-systems such as micro-electronic devices and micro-sensors has continued to expand, and has been widely used in many fields, especially in the medical field. . [0003] The orbicularis oculi muscle surrounds the eye and forms the eyelids, which are responsible for closing the eyes. By voluntary continuous contraction, the skin on it is pulled, and the eye-closing action is completed. Under normal circumstances, the orbicularis oculi muscle is innervated by the facial nerve, but if the facial nerve is damaged, the orbicularis oculi muscle will be paralyzed or paralyzed, unable to comp...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

In summary, the current research on contact lenses focuses on the mathematical analysis of optical imaging of the eye, turning of the surface of contact lenses, three-dimensional contour cutting, laser ablation, thermoforming, photolithography, thin film deposition, surface chemical modification and so on. In terms of the research on the glasses themselves, there is less research on the devices derived from contact lenses. Therefore, there is no contact lens structure layer electrode for orbicularis oculi muscle stimulation.
