High-Purity Monomers & Polymers for Ophthalmic Applications
The development and manufacture of contact and intraocular lenses requires a dependable supply of innovative, reliable raw materials including polymers and reagents. New materials can help enhance oxygen and water permeability, providing increased comfort and safety to contact lens wearers.
Monomer selection impacts a number of lens attributes such as modulus, permeability, surface smoothness, UV radiation absorption and resistance to tearing and surface defects.
We offer a wide and growing selection of monomers and polymers for ophthalmic applications, along with a full range of initiators, crosslinkers, dyes, and solvents. Our broad selection is backed by known quality levels and outstanding service, enabling contact lens manufacturers to quickly and successfully develop revolutionary new products.
