摘要:
A silicone contact lens has a silicate coating on at least one of the contact lens surfaces. The silicate coating is anchored to the bulk silicone contact lens material with a non-silicone polymer layer.
摘要:
At least one of the surfaces of a silicone contact lens is a wrinkled surface, providing the contact lens surface with a desired topography. The wrinkled surface may include random ridges, either over the entire surface of the lens, or in a desired pattern on the surface of the lens.

摘要:
A process for treating a silicone hydrogel biomedical device, especially an ophthalmic lens such as a contact lens, involves: immersing the silicone hydrogel biomedical device with a mixture of an organic solvent and a hydrophilic, polymeric material, for a sufficient time that the device is swollen in volume by at least 30%; and removing the organic solvent from the device while retaining at least a portion of the hydrophilic polymeric material therein.
摘要:
Biomedical devices are formed from the polymerization product of a monomeric mixture including a poly(2-oxazoline) endcapped with an ethylenically unsaturated radical, such as poly(2-oxazoline) macromonomers and telechelics. Preferred devices are ophthalmic lenses, especially contact lenses and intraocular lenses.
摘要:
Low water silicone-containing elastomers are based on a hydroxy- or amino-terminated prepolymer derived from an ethylenically unsaturated silicon-containing monomer, and at least one monomer reactive with hydroxyl- or amino-functional radicals of the prepolymer. The elastomers are especially useful as contact lens materials.
摘要:
Biomedical devices are provided herein which are formed from a polymerization product of a mixture comprising (a) a copolymer which is the reaction product of one or more polymerizable polyhydric alcohols and one or more polymerizable fluorine-containing monomers; and (b) a biomedical device-forming comonomer.
摘要:
Polysiloxanes having vinyl or epoxy functionality. The polysiloxanes are used to form polymer-based materials having properties particularly suited for biomedical device applications. The polysiloxanes are of general formula I: wherein R is a C2-10 alkenyl, a C2-10 alkyl with an epoxy group or a C5-C7cycloalkyl with an epoxy group; R2, R3 and R4 are each independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, C1-4 alkyl, C1-4 fluoroalkyl, optionally substituted phenyl and optionally substituted benzyl; A is —OH or —NHR5, wherein R5 is hydrogen or a C1-3 alkyl; and B is —R1-A or —R6, wherein R1 is a linking group having an alkylene group with 2 to 8 carbon atoms wherein the alkylene group optionally includes ether, urethane or ureido linkages; and R6 is selected from the group consisting of C1-4 alkyl, optionally substituted phenyl or optionally substituted benzyl; and m and n are integers with an m:n ratio from 30:1 to 3:1.
摘要:
Packaging systems for storing ophthalmic devices such as contact lenses and to methods for packaging such ophthalmic devices with solutions to improve the comfort of the lenses during wear are disclosed. A packaging system includes an ophthalmic device stored in an aqueous packaging solution comprising a hydrophilic polymer having one or more non-ethylenically-unsaturated carboxylic acid terminal groups.
