摘要:
New corneal implants and methods for producing such implants are disclosed. The present corneal implants comprise a lens body which is optically clear and is structured to be surgically attached in or on the cornea of a mammalian eye, the lens body including a core having an outer surface and made of a hydrogel composition containing water and a hydrophilic polymeric material, and a coating comprising a synthetic polymeric component located on the outer surface, covalently bonded to the hydrogel composition and having enhanced ability to support epithelial cell growth and/or adhesion relative to the hydrogel composition.

Corneal implants and methods for producing such implants are disclosed. The present corneal implants comprise a lens body which is optically clear and is structured to be surgically attached in or on the cornea of a mammalian eye, the lens body including a hydrogel composition containing water, a collagen component and a polymeric material covalently bonded to the collagen component. The hydrogel composition has enhanced biostability relative to an identical hydrogel composition without the polymeric material.

The present invention is directed to compositions comprising combinations of brimonidine and bimatoprost useful for lowering intraocular pressure in a patient and for the treatment of glaucoma.
摘要:
The present invention provides an aqueous ophthalmic solution comprising an effective amount of ketorolac which comprises carboxymethyl cellulose in an aqueous solution wherein said concentration of carboxymethyl cellulose is selected to provide an increased absorption of ketorolac in the eye of a patient that is at least 130% greater than the absorption of a comparative aqueous ketorolac ophthalmic solution having the same concentration of ketorolac.

In one embodiment, the alpha-2-adrenergic agonist components include alpha-2-adrenergic agonists. In another embodiment, the solubility enhancing components include carboxymethylcellulose.
摘要:
New intraocular lenses (IOLs) and methods for producing IOLs are disclosed. The present methods include a combination of steps which increase the pull strength between the fixation member of the IOL and the optic of the IOL without requiring sophisticated high frequency corona discharge activation or plasma activation of the fixation member. The fixation members are doubly coated with primer components and silicone polymeric material precursor compositions before being secured to the optics. In addition, the optic members employed in the present invention can be formed, for example, molded, without recesses to accommodate the fixation members. Thus, such recesses can be formed and provided with a quantity of the above-noted precursor composition after the optic members are produced. The doubly coated fixation members are then placed in the recesses and secured to the optic members. The present methods are straight forward, easy to practice and are cost effective in producing high quality IOLs.

摘要:
The present invention provides an aqueous ophthalmic solution comprising an effective amount of ketorolac which comprises mixtures of carboxymethyl cellulose in an aqueous solution wherein said concentration of carboxymethyl cellulose is selected to provide an increased absorption of ketorolac in the eye and improve visual acuity of the users.
摘要:
A recombinant bacteriophage, a method for producing and selecting the recombinant bacteriophage and a method for heterologous cloning of DNA are disclosed. The recombinant bacteriophage is produced by ligating genetic fragments encoding a desired genetic trait with DNA from a bacteriophage, incubating with DNA from a second Bacillus microorganism prototrophic for a growth requirement, incubating with a host Bacillus auxotrophic for the growth requirement. Transformed host Bacillus are selected by growing the mixture on a growth medium which does not contain the growth requirement and determining the presence of the genetic trait. The recombinant bacteriophage containing the desired genetic trait is recovered from the host Bacillus by induction. Heterologous cloning can be accomplished by incubating a host Bacillus with the recombinant bacteriophage.
