摘要:
The present invention relates to lenses that are capable of post-fabrication power modifications. In general, the inventive lenses comprise (i) a first polymer matrix and (ii) a refraction modulating composition that is capable of stimulus-induced polymerization dispersed therein. When at least a portion of the lens is exposed to an appropriate stimulus, the refraction modulating composition forms a second polymer matrix. The amount and location of the second polymer matrix may modify a lens characteristic such as lens power by changing its refractive index and/or by altering its shape. The inventive lenses have a number of applications in the electronics and medical fields as data storage means and as medical lenses, particularly intraocular lenses, respectively.

The invention relates to a method of customizing lenses using an external stimulus such as light. Fine-tuning of the lens to match the precise optical requirements using the same lens is also possible. The lenses are self-contained and do not require the addition or removal of significant portions of the lens to achieve customization.
