A PROCESS FOR PRODUCING COLOURED SHAPED ARTICLES

摘要

A uniformly colored shaped article which is resistant to discoloration and fading can be produced by immersing a shaped article, particularly a contact lens, consisting of a polymer of at least one monomer selected from the group consisting of acrylates and methacrylates in a dyeing solution prepared by dissolving a water-soluble dye in a solvent capable of swelling said polymer, to swell and color the shaped article, and then drying the swollen shaped article.
