An image display apparatus attachable to an eyeball includes: a display
unit including on a curved surface a plurality of display areas for
displaying images; a lens array unit integrated with the display unit,
the lens array unit having lenses corresponding to the respective display
areas, each lens allowing light rays of an image in the corresponding
display area to pass through; a lubricating member formed on the display
unit such that the lubricating member and the lens array unit are
arranged on opposite sides of the display unit, the lubricating member
permitting eyelids in contact with the apparatus to smoothly move; and a
protecting member formed on the lens array unit such that the protecting
member and the display unit are arranged on opposite sides of the lens
array unit, the protecting member being made of a light-transmissive
