Corneal changes from hydrophilic contact lenses [PDF]

open access: yesOptometry and Vision Science, 1973
Corneal thickness and corneal curvature were measured before and after the wearing of hydrophilic contact lenses and it was consistently found that the thickness increased while the curvature virtually remained unaltered.

Towards improving the biocompatibility of prosthetic eyes

open access: yesHeliyon, 2021
Prosthetic eyes are currently manufactured using Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) which is not an ideal material because it is hydrophobic. While significant research has investigated the benefits of hydrophilic materials for contact lenses, no such ...
