Abstract: Highly oxygen permeable hard and semi-hard contact lenses are made from the copolymer of ethylenically unsaturated siloxane ester, ethylenically unsaturated fluorocarbon ester and ethylenically unsaturated sulfone monomer and methods for the polymerization thereof.
Abstract: Highly oxygen permeable hard and semi-hard contact lenses are made from the copolymer of ethylenically unsaturated siloxanylalkoxy ester monomer, ethylenically unsaturated flurocarbon ester monomer and/or ethylenically unsaturated sulfone monomer; the copolymer plastic can be modified by the incorporation of hardening, stability and/or wettability agents and methods for the manufacturing thereof.
