The present invention relates to a smart remotely controlled contact lens for diagnosing and treating diseases by using a micro-LED. The present invention can diagnose and treat diseases by using a micro-LED or-OLED disposed in a contact lens. Further, the present invention can treat various diseases by using signals according to light wavelengths detected through a photodetector to control drug release from a drug delivery system in the contact lens. The drug delivery system that is a small-sized ocular insert can be electrically controlled. Accordingly, drug can be released from the drug delivery system at a desired time, and thus the drug delivery system can be applied to treatment of various diseases. Further, the photodetector can detect the therapeutic effect in real time through light reflected from a treated target cell, and thus the disease progression in a patient can be easily and quickly checked.
