摘要:
A method for reducing the modulus of polymer siloxane hydrogel compositions by employing monomeric polysiloxanes endcapped with trimethylsilyl to reduce the crosslinking density of the hydrogel. The synthesis consists of a single vessel acid catalyzed ring opening polymerization and may be employed to produce copolymers useful as hydrogel contact lens materials.
摘要:
Optically transparent, relatively high refractive index polymeric compositions and ophthalmic devices such as intraocular lenses, contact lenses and corneal inlays made therefrom are described herein. The preferred polymeric compositions are produced through the polymerization of one or more siloxysilane monomers or the copolymerization of one or more siloxysilane monomers with one or more aromatic or non-aromatic non-siloxy monomers, hydrophobic monomers or hydrophilic monomers.

摘要:
Hydrophilic, arylsiloxy-containing monomers and macromonomers have at least a terminal hydrophilic group attached to an arylsiloxy group. The aryl groups attached to siloxy groups can be substituted with other hydrophilic groups. Polymers comprising such hydrophilic, arylsiloxy-containing monomers and macromonomers avoid or reduce the risk of forming vacuoles of absorbed water. Furthermore, such polymers have high refractive index, and, thus, are advantageously used for making ophthalmic devices, such as intraocular lenses, contact lenses, corneal rings, corneal inlays, and keratoprostheses.
摘要:
Siloxy-containing monomers, macromonomers, or polymers have at least a siloxy-containing side group that comprises a refractive-index increasing substituent. Polymeric compositions comprising such siloxy-containing monomers, macromonomers, or polymers are advantageously used for making ophthalmic devices, such as intraocular lenses, contact lenses, corneal rings, corneal inlays, and keratoprostheses.

Fluorosilicone fluids useful as high-density fluid ocular tamponades and methods of producing, purifying and using the fluorosilicone fluids in an ocular surgical procedure for retinal treatment.
摘要:
Low water siloxane macromonomer are disclosed. This macromonomer can be copolymerized with unsaturated silicone containing monomers to prepare polymeric materials useful as biomedical devices. These macromonomers are particularly suited for soft contact lens applications.
摘要:
Novel polymers for biomedical use, especially rigid gas permeable contact lenses that are based on bulky side-chain siloxane cross linkers. The siloxanes, either alone, or as copolymers with bulky and non-bulky mono-functional polymerizable siloxanes, fluoro monomers, such as hexafluoroisopropyl methacrylate, and hydrophilic monomers, result in transparent, high oxygen permeable polymers possessing excellent lathing and milling characteristics.
