  • Process for manufacture of a thermochromic contact lens material
    Patent number: 11724472
    Abstract: Disclosed in this specification is a process for manufacturing a thermochromic contact lens. The process includes (1) selecting a photoinitiator that absorbs at a first wavelength and at least one thermochromic dye that displays substantial absorption at the first wavelength when the dye is at a first temperature and exhibits at least an 80% reduction in absorbance at the first wavelength at a second temperature, (2) maintaining the reaction mixture at the second temperature and (3) providing cure light that includes the first wavelength.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 17, 2020
    Date of Patent: August 15, 2023
    Assignee: Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc.
    Inventors: Donnie J. Duis, Nayiby Alvarez-Carrigan, Holly L. Grammer, Ture Kindt-Larsen, Frank F. Molock, Jr., Jaqunda Patton, Kim Sander Pedersen, Eric R. George
