Abstract: The invention is generally related to artificial tear composition for ophthalmic drug delivery, and more specifically to galactomannan, a cis-diol, a buffering agent and the composition is substantially free of a borate. The ophthalmic formulation having an osmolality in the range between 240 mOsm/kg and to 110 mOsm/kg.

Abstract: The invention is related to a process for producing contact lenses that not only comprise a water gradient structural configurations, but also have a minimized uptakes of polyquaternium-1 and a long-lasting surface hydrophilicity and wettability even after being undergone a simulated 30-days lens care regime.

Abstract: The present invention relates to improved contact lens products which not only have initial insertion comfort. The contact lens product of the invention comprises a soft hydrogel contact lens immersed and autoclaved in a packaging solution including a low molecular weight polyethylene glycol (PEG) (or glycerin) and a homopolymer or copolymer of vinylpyrrolidone. The present invention also provides methods for making contact lens products of the invention.

Abstract: The present invention provides a lens care composition having a persistent lipid removal efficacy characterized by that the amount of lipids adsorbed by a silicone hydrogel lens after about 10 cycles of soiling with a lipid soiling solution and subsequent cleaning with a lens care solution of the invention under no-rubbing conditions is about 70% or less of that after about 10 cycles of soiling with the lipid soiling solution and subsequent cleaning with an aqueous phosphate buffer under no-rubbing conditions. The lens care composition comprises at least one surfactant, a polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), xylitol, a buffering agent, wherein in combination with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and xylitol, the surfactant provides the persistent lipid removal efficacy.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a hydrogen peroxide solution for disinfecting contact lenses. The hydrogen peroxide solution contains an effective amount of a homopolymer or copolymer of vinylpyrrolidone to an increased residual hydrogen peroxide concentration when in the presence of a catalyst, thereby prolonging the effective life of the solution and providing greater comfort to the weather.

Abstract: This invention is directed to ophthalmic compositions comprising an ascomycin for once-a-day administration.

Abstract: The present invention provides solutions containing dexpanthenol in combination with xylitol, preferably further including a viscosity-enhancing agent to make solutions viscous so that the viscous solutions are not only capable of cleaning, disinfecting, and/or rinsing a contact lens in a lens case but also capable of cleaning and lubricating the contact lens directly in an eye. Such solutions can provide to the user an ability to clean and to rewet lenses anytime anywhere even without taking them out.
