摘要:
Shaped hydrogel articles such as soft contact lenses are prepared by the steps of: (1) molding or casting a polymerization mixture comprising: (a) a monomer mixture comprising a major proportion of one or more hydrophilic monomers such as 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, and one or more cross-linking monomers; and (b) an inert, displaceable diluent selected from the group consisting of: (i) ethoxylated alkyl glucoside; (ii) ethoxylated bisphenol A; (iii) polyethylene glycol; (iv) mixture of propoxylated and ethoxylated alkyl glucoside; (v) single phase mixture of ethoxylated or propoxylated alkyl glucoside and C.sub.2-12 dihydric alcohol; (vi) adduct of .epsilon.-caprolactone and C.sub.2-6 alkanediols and triols;(vii) ethoxylated C.sub.3-6 alkanetriol; and (viii) mixtures of one or more of (i) through (vii), under conditions to polymerize said monomer mixture to produce a shaped gel of a copolymer of said monomers and said diluent; and (2) thereafter replacing said diluent with water.

摘要:
The present invention provides soft contact lenses adopted for placement over the cornea or in the eye which have a high oxygen permeability, a low water content and excellent mechanical properties. Moreover, the lenses of the instant invention have excellent protein and lipid deposition resistance relative to conventional contact lenses. Such lenses having the properties mentioned above comprises a prepolymer which contains an alkoxylate glucoside that is derivatized with at least one polysiloxane compound. The prepolymer is then placed in a suitable mold and polymerized by exposure to ultraviolet light.

摘要:
The invention provides UV absorber solutions that do not require use of a solvent to prevent formation of insoluble reaction products. The invention is useful in the manufacture of ocular devices including spectacle, contact and intraocular lenses, but may find its greatest utility in the manufacture of spectacle lenses.
