Q

Describe Coopervision Aquaform Technology?

A
  • Attracts & binds water throughout lens material to retain moisture even during times of reduced blinking
  • Forms hydrogen bonds with water molecules to lock water into lens –> highly wettable surface for comfortable wearing experience
  • Long chains mean less raw silicon needs to be used to optimise oxygen transmissibility & increased oxygen levels keep eyes clear, white & healthy
  • Reduced silicon content also results in optimum modulus making lens softer & more flexible to enhance comfort

Q

Describe SiHy as a material?

A
  • SiHy – Blend hydrogel characteristics (wetting, comfort, movement) with Silicone characteristic (High oxygen
    permeability. Surface treated due to hydrophobic nature of silicone
  • SiHy – More prone to lipid deposition, stiffer less flexible lenses, thicker, high modulus. SEAL mechanical more
    common in SiHy due to high modulus
  • SiHy – More Silicone higher Dk – less water
  • Daily, 2 weekly, Monthly, Extended Wear.

Q

Describe SS Omnipurpose Solution?

A
  • Manufacturer: EM Pharma
  • Store lenses in closed lens case up to 7 days
  • Use within 60 days

  • PHMB - disinfectant/preservatie (cleans lens - destroys biocides (life))
  • Hydroxyethylcellulose - wetting agent (similar to comfort drops of tear supplements)
  • Hyaluronic acid - lubricates & protects CL from adhesion of lipids - more comfort throughout day
  • Sodium phosphate - cleaning agent/ buffer (helps maintain pH of soln close to neutral, helps maintain comfort)
  • Sodium chloride - tonicity adjuster (maintains salt levels)
  • Sodium hydroxide
  • Purified water

    o Sodium Hyaluronate 0.1% - stores and absorbs moisture, lubricates and
    filters inflammatory molecules
    o Dexpanthenol 2% - Lens moisturiser, creates a barrier inhibiting moisture
    evaporation and therefore prevents lens dehydration
