First Claim
Patent Images
1. A silicone hydrogel soft contact lens, which has a wettable surface and is obtained by a process comprising:
- polymerizing a mixed solution ofa first silicone monomer comprising a hydroxyl group or a polyethylene glycol group and 4 or fewer silicon atoms and a molecular weight of less than 1,000 anda glycerol mono(meth)acrylate,wherein, once wetted, the lens surface is uniformly covered with a water film.

Abstract
Provided is a silicone hydrogel soft contact lens obtained by curing in a double-sided casting mold, a liquid mixture including glycerol mono(meth)acrylate and at least one type of silicone monomer having at least one hydroxyl group or polyethylene glycol group in the molecular structure thereof, the silicone hydrogel soft contact lens having a wettable surface without a polymerized lens-shaped material being subjected to post-processing to improve the water wetting properties of a surface thereof.

9. A process for manufacturing a silicone hydrogel soft contact lens, the process comprising:
-
preparing a mixed solution by mixing at least one silicone monomer that comprises a hydroxyl group or polyethylene glycol group and comprises 4 or fewer silicon atoms and a molecular weight of less than 1,000 and, and a glycerol mono(meth)acrylate; filling the mixed solution into a both-face cast mold; and polymerizing the mixed solution in the both-face cast mold, whereby, once wetted, the lens surface of the resultant soft contact lens is uniformly covered with a water film. - View Dependent Claims (10, 12)
