摘要:
The use of compositions containing one or more antimicrobial agents with one or more trialkanolamine alkoxylate buffers to disinfect and/or preserve medical devices is described. Solutions containing one or more antimicrobial agents with one or more trialkanolamine alkoxylate buffers and methods of making and using the same are also described.
摘要:
The present invention provides an optically clear, hydrophilic coating upon the surface of a silicone hydrogel lens by subjecting the surface of the lens to a process comprising plasma treatment, hydration, and heat sterilization that is controlled to result in a silicate-containing film having a mosaic pattern of projecting plates surrounded by fissures when viewing a 50x50 micron square AFM image, wherein the peak-to-valley distances of the fissures are on average between about 100 and 500 angströms and the plate coverage is on average between about 40 % to 99 %.
摘要:
Compositions and methods for cleaning contact lenses employing one or more nonionic polyether surfactants having a HLB of less than 12 in an amount effective to reduce the amount of lipids on the contact lenses, thus rendering the contact lenses easier to clean. Additionally, by soaking contact lenses in the composition prior to inserting the lens on the eye, the compositions provide a prophylactic effect in preventing lipid deposition while the contact lens is worn.
摘要:
The present invention provides an optically clear, hydrophilic coating upon the surface of a silicone medical device by sequentially subjecting the surface of the lens to plasma polymerization in a hydrocarbon-containing atmosphere and then covalently attaching a preformed hydrophilic polymer to the surface of the carbon coating. The invention is especially useful for forming a biocompatible coating on a silicone contact lens.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to the surface treatment of silicone hydrogel contact lenses. In particular, the present invention is directed to a method of modifying the surface of a contact lens to increase its hydrophilicity by coating the lens with a carbon-containing layer made from a diolefinic compound having 4 to 8 carbon atoms. In one embodiment, an optically clear, hydrophilic coating is provided upon the surface of a silicone hydrogel lens by sequentially subjecting the surface of the lens to: a plasma oxidation reaction, followed by a plasma polymerization reaction in the presence of a diolefin in the absence of air. Finally, the resulting carbon layer is rendered hydrophilic by a further plasma oxidation reaction or by the attachment of a hydrophilic polymer chain.

The use of compositions containing one or more antimicrobial agents with one or more (hydroxyalkyl)diamine-based buffers, (hydroxyalkoxy)diamine-based buffers or combinations thereof to disinfect and/or preserve medical devices is described. Solutions containing one or more antimicrobial agents with one or more (hydroxyalkyl)diamine-based buffers, (hydroxyalkoxy)diamine-based buffers or combinations thereof and methods of making and using the same are also described.
摘要:
Ophthalmic compositions such as eye drop and contact lens treating solutions include a polycationic material to enhance antimicrobial efficacy against protozoans such as acanthamoebae. One preferred class of polycationic materials is cationic cellulose derivatives.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to an ophthalmic solution for soft contact lenses for controlled release of polyethers into an eye's tear film. Polyether components of the subject ophthalmic solution are released from the soft contact lens material matrix over long time periods to produce longer lasting wetting performance, improved lubricity, improved end-of-the-day comfort and reduced feeling of dryness from wearing contact lenses.
