Compositions comprising polyquaterniums in combination with polymeric biguanides for disinfecting contact lenses

摘要

The present invention is directed to an ophthalmically safe disinfecting solution for contact lenses comprising the combination of a polymeric biguanide and a polyquaternium polymer of a substituted or unsubstituted vinylimidazole or its vinylimidazoliuum salt, which copolymer has a weight average molecular weight of 5,000 to 5,000,000. The invention is also directed to an improved method of disinfecting a contact lens.
