Poly(vinyl alcohol) hydrogels as soft contact lens material

Abstract

A new type of soft contact lens was developed from the poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) hydrogel prepared by a low temperature crystallization technique using a water-dimethyl sulfoxide mixed solvent. The PVA contact lens materials had a water content of 78% and a tensile strength of 50 kg/cm2, five times as strong as that of commercial poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) soft contact lens. The amount of proteins adsorbed to the PVA soft hydrogel material was half to one thirtieth of that of conventional soft contact lenses. Histological and scanning electron microscopic observation of rabbit eyes which had worn the PVA soft contact lens for 12 weeks showed no difference in corneal epithelium and cell arrangement in the corneal epithelium from the non-wearing eyes.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
