Method of manufacturing hydrogel ophthalmic devices with electronic elements

摘要

The present invention provides methods for forming an ophthalmic lens (100, 209) that can include a media insert (110, 204) and/or electronic components (120, 202). In particular, the present disclosure provides for adhesion promoting functionalization steps for a biocompatible coating to bind a hydrogel material to a plastic surface or electronic component prior to the polymerization of the hydrogel. In some aspects, the media insert can be used to contain energy sources and/or functional electronic components (120, 202) which may be, for example, in a stacked integrated component configuration to permit a generally arcuate shape that can conform to the anterior surface of an eye.
