摘要:
The present invention is directed toward the renewable surface treatment of medical devices such as contact lenses and medical implants. In particular, the present invention is directed to a method of modifying the surface of a medical device to increase its biocompatibility or hydrophilicity by coating the device with a removable hydrophilic polymer by means of reaction between reactive functionalities on the hydrophilic polymer which functionalities are complementary to reactive functionalities on or near the surface of the medical device at reaction temperatures of less than about 55° C.

摘要:
The invention provides a biocompatible copolymer produced by polymerizing a mixture comprising at least one monomer selected from the group consisting of itaconates, (meth)acrylates, fumarates and styrenics, at least one ethylenically unsaturated organosiloxane monomer and at least one monomer comprising a POSS compound.
摘要:
A copolymer useful as a rigid gas permeable contact lens material is the polymerization product of a monomeric mixture comprising a polysiloxane-containing urethane or urea prepolymer endcapped with polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated radicals.

The invention provides, in a first embodiment, a blocking wax composition. The blocking wax comprises from about 50 to about 90 weight percent of a water-soluble continuous phase and from about 10 to about 50 weight percent of a discontinuous solid phase filler that is substantially inert to the continuous phase. The invention further provides a method for mounting a contact lens blank for machining.
摘要:
A bimodulus contact lens article, including both contact lenses and buttons from which contact lenses are produced. More specifically, the subject bimodulus contact lens article comprises a rigid gas-permeable polymeric core section and a soft edge section attached annularly about the core section. The edge section of the subject lens article comprises a crosslinked composition polymerized from a monomer mix including at least 15 weight percent of monomers represented by Formula I: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is selected from: hydrogen and a methyl group, and R.sub.2 is selected from alkyl groups having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, so long as R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are not both methyl groups. The soft edge section is annularly attached to the core section by an interpenetrating network of the crosslinked composition into the core section.
