Silicone hydrogels materials for contact lens applications

Silicone hydrogel (Si-Hy) materials combine the benefits of silicone or siloxane derivates in terms of oxygen permeability and mechanical properties with those of hydrogels in terms of wettability and hidrophilicity. Such properties are critical when it comes to the application at the ocular surface...
