Theory of a Possible Mechanism for Lubrication and Surface Protection by an Electrically Neutral Hydrogels [PDF]
, 2014 It is demonstrated that polymers sticking out of the surface of a neutral hydrogel are capable of preventing adhesive forces from pulling a hydrogel into close contact with a surface against which it is pressed.

Observations on Scanning Electron Microscopy of Hydrophilic Contact Lenses [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Optometry, 1974 Hydrated hydrophilic lenses, Bionite and Hydron, were prepared for scanning electron microscopy by air drying and freeze drying techniques. Air dried lenses shrank more on dehydration (with more distortion to overall lens shape) than freeze dried lenses.

Lipoidal species in ocular spoilation processes [PDF]
Tear component deposition onto contact lenses is termed `spoilation' and occurs due to the interaction of synthetic polymers with their biological fluid environment. Spoilation phenomena alter the physico-chemical properties of hydrophilic contact lenses,

CrystalsThe widespread use of hydrophilic intraocular lenses (IOLs) in eye surgery, fabricated by poly-2-(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA), has highlighted their calcification as a serious problem, implying that their surgical explantation is a rather risky ...

ON THE DESIRABILITY AND EFFICACY OF CHEMICAL “STERILIZATION” OF HYDROPHILIC CONTACT LENSES* [PDF]
The Australian Journal of Optometry, 1971 : A reappraisal of the value and the aims of contact lens “sterilisation” was undertaken with a view to defining the role of hydrophilic lens storage solutions. The efficacy of four types of hydrophilic soaking solutions and one conventional (hard) contact lens soaking solution were tested in an experimental situation against pseudomonas aeruginosa and

A clinical comparison of three hydrophilic contact lenses on dry eye patients [PDF]
This study was designed to evaluate three hydrophilic contact lens materials for comfort, dryness and overall satisfaction on subjects with and without subjective dry eye. The lenses evaluated were Acuvue, Proclear and SaturEyes.
