Patent ID: 8430928

Claim:
An intraocular lens comprising: an optic body comprising a first hydrophobic soft acrylic copolymer; and a haptic comprising a first silicone connected to the optic body; wherein the first hydrophobic soft acrylic copolymer comprises: an acrylate recurring unit; and an optionally substituted vinylaryl recurring unit; wherein a portion of at least one of the recurring units comprises a vinyldialkylsiloxy pendant group, and further wherein the first hydrophobic soft acrylic copolymer is prepared by a process comprising reacting monomer 1a, monomer 2, and monomer 3a; and monomer 4 or monomer 5a; wherein monomer 1a represents about 20% to about 70% of the total weight of all monomers present in the process and is represented by a formula: monomer 2 represents about 10% to about 40% of the total weight of all monomers present in the process and is represented by a formula: monomer 3a represents about 5% to about 40% of the total weight of all monomers present in the process and is represented by a formula: monomer 4 is represented by a formula: monomer 5a represents about 1% to about 20% of the total weight of all monomers present in the process and is represented by a formula: R 1 and R 2 are independently C 1-12 alkyl or optionally substituted phenyl; X is C 1-4 alkyl; Y 1 , Y 2 , and Y 3 are independently H or C 1-4 alkyl; Ph 1 and Ph 2 are independently optionally substituted phenyl; each R 3 and each R 4 is independently C 1-4 alkyl or each R 5 and each R 6 is independently C 1-4 alkyl; R 7 is a covalent bond or C 1-6 alkyl; and R 8 is C 1-6 alkyl.
