INTRAOCULAR LENSES HAVING A VISIBLE LIGHT-SELECTIVE-TRANSMISSIVE-REGION

摘要

Intraocular lenses are provided having a visible-light selective transmissive zone defined therein. The visible light-selective transmissive zone can be located near the lens center and designed to reduce the transmission of any wave-length of visible light specifically light in the blue light region having wavelength between approximately 400 λ to 550 λ. In one embodiment he IOLs are made from acrylates and the light absorbing compound is a yellow dye.
