The invention discloses a strong shading gel
eye protection patch and a preparation method thereof, and relates to the field of biomedical materials.The
eye protection patch comprises a
polyvinyl alcohol gel substrate and superfine
graphite powder evenly dispersed in the
polyvinyl alcohol gel substrate, the gel substrate further comprises
glycerol serving as a
plasticizer, and the thickness of the gel
eye protection patch is 3 mm; the preparation method comprises the following steps: dissolving
polyvinyl alcohol in preheated deionized water, adding
graphite powder, stirring and dispersing, adding
glycerol, stirring to form a uniform suspension, injecting the suspension into a mold, carrying out freezing and thawing cycle treatment of-80 DEG C freezing and
room temperature thawing for 1-3 times, and demolding to obtain the eye protection patch. The product is low in light
transmittance, can be tightly attached to the periphery of eyes, and effectively obstructs strong light in
laser treatment; meanwhile, the eyeshade is soft and hydrophilic in texture, comfortable and breathable to wear, free of oppression and stuffiness of a traditional
rope type eyeshade, mild in preparation process, good in
biocompatibility and suitable for clinical application and popularization.
