Hydrogel oxygen generator with improved fluid flow
First Claim
1. An oxygen and hydrogen generator comprising a water containing polymer having a plurality of photosensitive particles imbedded within the polymer which produce both hydrogen and oxygen by the photoelectrolysis of water when the photosensitive particles are excited by being exposed to light, said polymer having a plurality of open ended tubes extending into the polymer structure whereby the generated oxygen and hydrogen may pass within the tubes to the polymer surface.

Abstract
A contact lens concave-convex in form made of a transparent, optically clear hydrogel polymer containing micro-photoelectrolysis elements to produce hydrogen and oxygen by the electrolysis of water and capillary tubes within the hydrogel polymer to remove the hydrogen and oxygen from the lens and supplying water for electrolysis.
