Abstract:
1. A method of forming a soft contact lens, the method comprising: depositing an energy receptor capable of receiving energy via a radio wave on to one of: a first mold part and a second mold part, wherein together, said first mold part and said second mold comprise a polyolefin and form a mold system for forming the contact lens, and wherein the energy received via a radio wave is suitable for operating a processing device; prior to the step of depositing a reactive monomer mixture into one of: the first mold part and the second mold part, depositing a binder layer onto one of the first mold part and the second mold part; placing the energy receptor onto the binder layer, thereby binding the energy receptor to the binder layer depositing a reactive monomer mix into to one of: the first mold part and the second mold part, wherein said reactive monomer mix comprises a silicone-containing component; positioning the first mold part proximate to the second mold part thereby forming a lens cavity with the energy receptor and at least some of reactive monomer mix in the lens cavity; exposing the reactive monomer mix to actinic radiation and placing a processor onto the binder layer, wherein the energy receptor is separate from the processor.
