Patent ID: 10894111

Abstract:
A hydrophilic intraocular lens (IOL) with high refractive index comprising at least one copolymer comprising: ((a) a first monomeric subunit comprising (i) a polymerized (meth)acrylate group and an aliphatic carbon moiety comprising at least two hydroxyl substituents or (ii) a polymerized (meth)acrylamide group, (b) a second monomeric subunit different from the first monomeric subunit comprising a polymerized (meth)acrylate group, at least one side group comprising (i) an aryloxy moiety comprising at least one halogen, and (ii) an aliphatic carbon moiety linking the aryloxy moiety with the polymerized (meth)acrylate group, wherein the aliphatic carbon moiety comprises optionally at least one hydroxyl substituent, (c) a third monomeric subunit different from the first and second monomeric subunits comprising a polymerized (meth)acrylate group and at least one alkoxyalkoxyalkyl side group.
