AI Technical Summary
The existing soft hydrophilic contact lenses lack the anti-blue light function, which leads to large differences in color display in the direct eye area, affecting the visual experience, and consistent thickness affecting the display effect.
A new type of anti-blue-light soft hydrophilic contact lens is designed. The lens body includes an optical zone, a base arc area and a side arc area. The thickness of the optical zone is smaller than the base arc area. The optical zone is a direct viewing area with a thin thickness to reduce the impact on color. The thickness of the base arc area is larger to enhance blue light absorption. The thickness of the edge arc area is smaller than the optical zone to improve comfort.
It improves the color reproduction degree of the direct eye area, reduces harmful blue light scattering, enhances the anti-blue light effect, and maintains good display effect and wear comfort.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of soft hydrophilic contact lenses, in particular to a novel blue light-proof soft hydrophilic contact lens. Background Art
[0002] Soft hydrophilic contact lenses are a type of medical device made of etaflicon A polymer, used for daily correction of refractive errors. The replacement cycle is divided into years, six months, months, days, etc.
[0003] Existing research indicates that blue light poses harmful effects on the human eye, primarily through ocular pathological damage such as myopia, cataracts, and macular degeneration, as well as circadian rhythmic damage. As early as 1966, Nell et al. discovered that exposure to blue light can damage retinal cells, leading to decreased or even complete vision loss. At the 2010 International Association of Optics (IOP) Annual Meeting, leading optical experts worldwide unanimously stated that shortwave blue light, with its extremely high energy, can penetrate the lens and reach the retina. Blue light exposure to the retina generates free radicals, which can cause the cell death of the retinal pigment epithelium. This cell death leads to a lack of nutrients for photosensitive cells, causing irreversible vision loss. Common commercially available soft hydrophilic contact lenses generally lack blue light protection. Those that do offer blue light protection typically have a uniform thickness throughout the lens, significantly affecting the color displayed in the direct viewing area of the eye. This can significantly deviate from the actual color seen by the user, hindering the user's visual experience. Therefore, a new blue light-blocking soft hydrophilic contact lens has been proposed to address these issues. Utility Model Content
[0004] In response to the shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides a new blue light blocking soft hydrophilic contact lens, which improves the color reproduction of the direct viewing area of the eye, reduces the blue light scattered outside the direct viewing area of the eye, and solves the above-mentioned problems.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a new type of blue light blocking soft hydrophilic contact lens, comprising a lens body, a seat and a molding seat, wherein the lens body comprises an optical zone, a base curve zone and an edge curve zone, the thickness of the optical zone is less than the thickness of the base curve zone, and the thickness of the edge curve zone is less than the thickness of the optical zone.
[0006] Furthermore, a molding groove is provided inside the molding seat, the volume of the seat support is smaller than the volume of the molding groove, and the lens body can be attached to the seat support.
[0007] Furthermore, the interior of the molding groove is filled with a lens solution, and the lens solution becomes a lens to be turned after solidification, and the lens to be turned becomes a lens body after turning.
[0008] Furthermore, the lens solution is composed of a mixture of hydroxyethyl methacrylate, methacrylic acid, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, reactive brilliant blue X-BR, reactive bright yellow X-7G and azobisisobutyronitrile, wherein the content of hydroxyethyl methacrylate is 98.55%, the content of methacrylic acid is 0.59%, the content of ethylene glycol dimethacrylate is 0.49%, the content of reactive brilliant blue X-BR is 0.1%, the content of reactive bright yellow X-7G is 0.15%, and the content of azobisisobutyronitrile is 0.12%.
[0009] Compared with the existing technology, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:
[0010] The thickness of the optical zone of this new blue light-proof soft hydrophilic contact lens is smaller than that of the base curve zone. The optical zone is the direct view area of the user's eyes. The thickness of the optical zone is thinner, which reduces the influence of the lens body on the original display color and display effect, and improves color reproduction. The base curve zone is located outside the direct view area of the eyes, and has less impact on the display effect of the user's viewing of objects. The thickness of the base curve zone is thicker, and the harmful blue light absorption ability is stronger, reducing the harmful blue light scattered outside the direct view area of the eyes.

[0018] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0019] See also Figure 1-6 , an embodiment provided by the utility model:
[0020] A novel blue light-blocking soft hydrophilic contact lens comprises a lens body 1, a base 2 and a molding base 3. The lens body 1 comprises an optical zone 101, a base curve zone 102 and an edge curve zone 103. The thickness of the optical zone 101 is less than that of the base curve zone 102. The optical zone 101 is the direct viewing area of the user's eyes. The thickness of the optical zone 101 is relatively thin, which reduces the influence of the lens body 1 on the original display color and display effect, and improves color reproduction. The base curve zone 102 is located outside the direct viewing area of the eye and has little influence on the display effect of the user viewing objects. The thickness of the base curve zone 102 is relatively thick, and has a stronger ability to absorb harmful blue light, thereby reducing the harmful blue light scattered outside the direct viewing area of the eye. The thickness of the edge curve zone 103 is less than that of the optical zone 101, thereby improving the wearing comfort of the user.
[0021] Furthermore, the transmittance of the lens body 1 for light (380nm to 780nm) is not less than 97%, which has little effect on the user's ability to see objects.
[0022] Furthermore, the color rendering index of the illumination light after passing through the lens body 1 is not less than 96, which has little effect on the color of objects seen by the user's eyes.
[0023] Furthermore, the relative reduction rate of retinal blue light radiation damage in the 305nm to 780nm spectrum range of the lens body 1 is not less than 10%, and has a good blue light protection effect.
[0024] Furthermore, the nominal refractive index of the lens body 1 is 1.428±0.005, and the water content of the lens body 1 during use is 42%±2%.
[0025] Follow the steps below during use:
[0026] Step 1: drop the lens solution 4 into the molding groove 301 of the molding seat 3, put the seat 2 into the molding groove 301 and squeeze the lens solution 4 (as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown), wait for the lens solution 4 to solidify and form and fit on the base 2 (as shown Figure 6 shown);
[0027] Step 2: lathe the lens 5 to be turned to be cut into lens bodies 1 (such as Figure 2 shown).
[0028] In summary, the new blue light blocking soft hydrophilic contact lens improves the color reproduction of the direct viewing area of the eye, reduces the blue light scattered outside the direct viewing area of the eye, and solves the problems raised in the background technology.
