Abstract: The present invention provides a hydrophilic coating method for contact lens surface, firstly performing a hydration procedure S1 to form a hydrated polymer from a non-hydrated polymer, then sequentially contacting the hydrated polymer with a first solution and a second solution containing a high molecular compound at a specific temperature between 50° C. and 70° C. to complete a first hydration process S2 and a second hydration process S3. A contact lens 1 obtained according to the above procedures has a contact angle ranging from about 30° to 65°, and proteins and lipids are not easily deposited on a surface of the contact lens 1, thereby providing the user with good comfort when wearing.

Abstract: A moisturizing composition of a contact lens is disclosed in the present invention. A rinse agent (ex. TEOA) is applied for bonding a moisturizing stabilizer (ex. HPMC) and a compound of a hydrophilic cosolvent (ex. PEG) and a moisturizing additive (ex. HA). Hence, the solubility of the moisturizing additive and the aqueous solution can be improved via applying the hydrophilic cosolvent; the stability of the combination of the moisturizing stabilizer and the moisturizing additive can be improved via the structural and the chemical stabilities of the moisturizing stabilizer itself. Meanwhile, the moisturizing composition disclosed can be directly applied to the raw material of the conventional contact lens during manufacturing the high-moisturizing contact lenses.
Abstract: A 3D network-structured silicon-containing preploymer and a method for fabricating the same are disclosed. The method of the present invention undertakes a hydrolytic condensation/polymerization reaction of penta(alkanol)alkoxy disiloxane, a reactive silicon-containing polymer and a reactive hydrophilic monomer to form a silicon-containing preploymer featuring a 3D network structure and having superior mechanical strength. The method further undertakes a copolymerization reaction of the silicon-containing preploymer, a hydrophilic monomer and a silicon-containing hydrophobic monomer to fabricate a silicone hydrogel-containing mixture having high oxygen permeability and high hydrophilicity. The silicone hydrogel-containing mixture can be used to fabricate contact lenses that the users wear comfortably.
