The Impact of Comfort Eluting Agents and Replacement Frequency on Enhancing Contact Lens Performance

Clinical ophthalmology, Год журнала: 2025, Номер Volume 19, С. 857 - 873

Опубликована: Март 1, 2025

Abstract: This review explores the development and clinical implications of soft contact lenses designed to elute comfort agents, emphasizing their role in enhancing user experience ocular health. As discomfort remains one primary reasons for discontinuation lens wear, this concept aims address challenge by gradually releasing these agents over period use. also effectiveness, safety, satisfaction associated with frequent replacement schedules lenses. Clinical trials demonstrate that eluting significantly reduce dryness irritation, leading improved wear-time overall comfort. The findings suggest not only enhances hygiene but maximizes therapeutic benefits eluted promoting a healthier environment. practice highlight shift towards more patient-centered approaches design management, aiming improve adherence among users. research paves way future innovations technology, focusing on personalized solutions cater individual needs. Keywords: comfort, lens, frequency, wettability

Eye Tear Activated Mg‐Air Battery Driven by Natural Eye Blinking for Smart Contact Lenses

Advanced Materials Technologies, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 8(1)

Опубликована: Сен. 14, 2022

Abstract A sliding electrolyte metal‐air microbattery driven by natural eye blinking motion is demonstrated as a source of electrical energy that can be integrated with smart contact lens platforms. The battery (footprint 10 mm 2 ) consists Mg anode and Pt cathode, patterned on an insulating substrate the film eye‐tear fluid periodically dragged top electrodes during eye‐blinking cycle, which activates battery. When tested emulator, open‐circuit voltage across activated (ETMAB) 2.2 V. Impedance matching analysis reveals maximum battery‐specific capacity 3561 mAh g –1 obtained at discharge current density 5 mA cm –2 . exhibits generated power 1.3 mW load 740 Ω. ETMAB delivers eight times higher output more than three longer lifetime achievable static designs.
