Determination of oxygen permeability in soft contact lenses using a polarographic method : estimation of relevant physiological parameters

This work reports the apparent oxygen transmissibility Dk/t)app of four silicone hydrogel (Si-Hy) contact lenses (CLs). A method is described that allows the estimation of the oxygen tension at the lens-cornea interface for closed- and open-eyelids situations combining the instrument oxygen transmis...
