3 results about "Contact lens material" patented technology

There are three main categories of contact lenses, based on the materials they are made of: soft contacts, rigid gas permeable (GP) contacts, and hybrid contact lenses. Soft contacts are made of pliable hydrophilic (water-loving) plastics called hydrogels.

A hydrophilic rigid gas permeable contact lens material and a method of surface graft modification thereof

PendingCN122356553AEpoxyPolymer science
The application discloses a kind of hydrophilic rigid gas-permeable contact lens materials and its surface grafting modified preparation method, comprising the following steps: using the monomer containing isocyanate group or epoxy group and the copolymerization of silane monomer and methyl methacrylate to prepare rigid contact lens;The above-mentioned rigid contact lens is immersed into the solution containing hydrophilic macromolecule of hydroxyl or amino, and the covalent reaction of epoxy group and amino or isocyanate group and hydroxyl or amino is carried out at high temperature, and the hydrophilic macromolecule is grafted on the surface of lens;The present application is simple and easy to operate, and the product after grafting is stable, which can significantly improve the hydrophilicity of the lens without affecting the transparency of the lens.

Photothermal "on-off" drug release hydrogel contact lens materials, methods of making and use thereof

PendingCN122127535AEye treatmentOptical partsMeth-(Hydroxyethyl)methacrylate
This invention discloses a method for preparing a photothermal controlled-release hydrogel contact lens material. The method involves chemically bonding ganciclovir with hydroxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride chitosan, then adding methacrylic anhydride to introduce double bonds. The resulting product is used as a crosslinking agent to crosslink and copolymerize with hydroxyethyl methacrylate (MXene) nanosheets to prepare the hydrogel material. The prepared photothermal controlled-release hydrogel contact lens material can bond drugs to the polymer chains of the hydrogel contact lens for drug loading, avoiding drug loss due to tear rinsing, thereby improving drug storage stability. Furthermore, it can be modulated with near-infrared light to generate a photothermal effect, raising the hydrogel temperature and triggering the breakage of thermosensitive azo bonds, releasing the drug into the contact lens matrix. When the lens is worn, the drug can be slowly released from the contact lens into the eye, potentially making it a multifunctional contact lens material for treating eye diseases.
