USE OF PHOTOPOLYMERIZABLE FILTER COMPOSITIONS FOR INTRA-OCULAR LENSES FOR THE TREATMENT OF CATARACTS OR OTHER DISEASES OF THE EYE

摘要

The use of photopolymerisable compositions for the production of a filler material for intraocular lenses which is used intraoperatively with inserted intraocular lens capsule is described. The photopolymerisable compositions contain the following components: … …  a. 90 - 99.99% by weight, preferably 90 - 99.799% by weight, of at least one acrylate and/or methacrylate which is at least difunctional, …  b. 0.01 - 5% by weight, preferably 0.1 - 2% by weight, of a photoinitiator which can be activated by light in the wavelength range 400 - 500 nm, …  c. 0 - 9.98% by weight, preferably 0.001 - 2% by weight, of a UV absorber which can absorb light of wavelengths < 400 nm and …  d. 0 - 9.98% by weight, preferably 0.1 - 2% by weight, of other auxiliaries, such as dyes or activators for the photoinitiator, for example tertiary amines, the stated amounts being based in each case on the total composition. …
