INTRAOCULAR LENSES WITH MODIFIED SURFACE

摘要

Surface modified medical devices such as intraocular lens implants formed from one or more functional group-containing materials using reactive, hydrophilic polymers for the purpose of reducing or eliminating lens epithelial cell growth thereon, reducing or eliminating silicone oil absorption upon subsequent surgical exposure and/or reducing or eliminating implantation inserter friction is provided herein. Additionally, a method of making and using surface modified intraocular lens implants is provided.
