1. An ocular biomechanical properties (OBP) measuring and monitoring method comprising placing a contact lens presenting an inner surface and an outer surface and a sensing unit on an eye of a user, said sensing unit being united with said contact lens such that it is applied against an eye of a user for sensing at least a first OBP and a second OBP of said eye when said contact lens is worn by said user, simultaneously or consecutively measuring the first and second OBPs with said sensing unit and transmitting the first and second OBPs to a CPU and determining using said CPU at least one new biomarker based on a combination between at least the first and second OBPs.
