The effect of albumin and cholesterol on the biotribological behavior of hydrogels for contact lenses

The irritation/discomfort associated with the use of contact lenses (CLs) is often related to the eyelid-lens friction. Although the use of such devices is widespread, the information about the influence of the lacrimal fluid biomolecules on the tribological behavior of the CLs hydrogels is scarce....
