HYDROPHILIC CONTACT LENSES FOR APHAKIA
American journal of optometry and archives of American Academy of Optometry, 1973ABSTRACT High plus soft hydmphilic gel lcnrcr have k n fittcd on an invatigational basis. inqads to ufety and efficiency. The spccid tcchniquu uscd in fitting and the problems uniquc to this type of lens am discussed. A summary of the disposition of thc casts is pmentrd including wuring timc. visual acuity. and side eEem.

Bacterial adhesion to surface hydrophilic and hydrophobic contact lenses
Biomaterials, 2001 The aim of this paper was to determine the adhesion of two physico-chemically characterized bacterial strains to a surface hydrophilic (CL A, water contact angle 57 degrees) and hydrophobic (CL B, water contact angle 106 degrees) hydrogel contact lens ...

Microwave Sterilization of Hydrophilic Contact Lenses
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1986We used standard 2,450-MHz microwave irradiation to achieve sterilization of hydrophilic contact lenses contaminated with a variety of bacterial, fungal, and viral corneal pathogens. A three-dimensional rotisserie was used to overcome the problem of "cold spots" within the microwave oven.

Continuous Wear of Hydrophilic Contact Lenses
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1973A hydrophilic contact lens was fitted on the normal right cornea of ten informed volunteers and worn continuously for ten days. No evidence of an overwearing syndrome was encountered in any of the subjects. Edema and a burning sensation occurred in several subjects, but these symptoms were transient, minor, and self-limited.

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1969
To the Editor. —Bausch and Lomb Inc., are soon to release their hydrophilic contact lens, known as SOFLENS, on the market. I have been working with these lenses for the last year and have been fitting them on selected patients since July 1968. As there is little information yet available on this new lens, which is very different from the conventional ...

MICROBIOLOGY AND HYDROPHILIC CONTACT LENSES
Optometry and Vision Science, 1971ABSTRACT Contact lenses made of poly (2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate) are capable of autoclaving and repeated exposure to steam or boiling water. These procedures are effective methods of maintaining the microbiological safety of hydrophilic contact lenses on the shelf and while being worn by ...

EFFECTS OF HYDROPHILIC CONTACT LENSES ON CORNEAL SENSITIVITY*
Optometry and Vision Science, 1970ABSTRACT Corneal sensitivity was measured in a group of subjects wearing hydrophilic contact lenses. The findings were compared with measurements made on hard contact lens wearers and nonwearers. The Cochet and Bonnet Aesthesiometer was used to measure the corneal touch threshold on the apical

Clinical and Experimental Optometry, 1966
SUMMARY It has been the author's experience both in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, and Prague, Czechoslovakia, to see a number of patients wearing this lens who report complete comfort. Some patients reported a total unawareness of the presence of a lens in the eye. Visual acuity was a problem with the older hydrophilic lenses, apparently not the new.

Fungal Invasion of Seven Hydrophilic Contact Lenses
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1993In six patients we reviewed the clinical, microbiologic, and histopathologic findings of seven hydrophilic contact lenses that had been infiltrated by fungi. Three patients had visual blurring or irritation and redness while wearing a contaminated lens; of these, two were unaware of any lens deposits.

TWO YEARS EXPERIENCE WITH HYDROPHILIC CONTACT LENSES
Optometry and Vision Science, 1970ABSTRACT Three years of study, research and development have been devoted toward the improvement of hydrophilic contact lenses originally developed in Czechoslovakia. Patients have been part of this program since September 1967.
