Description

本発明は、着色眼科用レンズを保存するためのパッケージに関する。   The present invention relates to a package for storing colored ophthalmic lenses.

コンタクトレンズは、１９５０年代以来、視力を改善するために商業的に使用されてきた。当初、コンタクトレンズは硬質材料で作製されていたので、使用のための取り扱い及び包装が比較的容易であったが、多くの患者にとって不快であった。後に、疎水性ヒドロゲルで作製されたより軟質でより快適なレンズが開発された。これらソフトレンズの人気により、ユーザは、レンズに視力矯正以上のものを求めるようになり、更に美容上の効果も求めるようになっている。大部分は、このような効果は、天然の虹彩の色を向上させるか（商品名ｅｎｈａｎｃｅｒｓとして知られている）、又は天然の虹彩の色をマスクする（商品名ｏｐａｑｕｅとして知られている）ための色で着色されたコンタクトレンズによりもたらされる。   Contact lenses have been used commercially to improve vision since the 1950s. Initially, contact lenses were made of a hard material and were relatively easy to handle and package for use, but were uncomfortable for many patients. Later, softer and more comfortable lenses made of hydrophobic hydrogels were developed. Due to the popularity of these soft lenses, users are demanding more than correction of visual acuity for lenses, and further demanding cosmetic effects. For the most part, these effects either improve the natural iris color (known as the trade name enhancers) or mask the natural iris color (known as the trade name opaque). Brought about by contact lenses colored in the colors of

大部分のコンタクトレンズは、透明なボウル部分とホイルトップとを有する個別のブリスターパッケージに包装されており、このボウル部分は、ポリプロピレン等の疎水性材料で作製される。このようなパッケージの例については、全文が参照により本明細書に援用される米国特許第４，６９１，８２０号、同第５，０５４，６１０号、同第５，３３７，８８８号、同第５，３７５，６９８号、同第５，４０９，１０４号、同第５，４６７，８６８号、同第５，５１５，９６４号、同第５，６０９，２４６号、同第５，６９５，０４９号、同第５，６９７，４９５号、同第５，７０４，４６８号、同第５，７１１，４１６号、同第５，７２２，５３６号、同第５，５７３，１０８号、同第５，８２３，３２７号、同第５，７０４，４６８号、同第５，９８３，６０８号、同第６，０２９，８０８号、同第６，０４４，９６６及び同第６，４０１，９１５号を参照されたい。   Most contact lenses are packaged in a separate blister package having a clear bowl portion and a foil top, which is made of a hydrophobic material such as polypropylene. For examples of such packages, see US Pat. Nos. 4,691,820, 5,054,610, 5,337,888, which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. 5,375,698, 5,409,104, 5,467,868, 5,515,964, 5,609,246, 5,695,049 No. 5,697,495, No. 5,704,468, No. 5,711,416, No. 5,722,536, No. 5,573,108, No. 5 823,327, 5,704,468, 5,983,608, 6,029,808, 6,044,966 and 6,401,915. Please refer.

典型的に、これらパッケージのホイルトップは一色であり、ほとんどの場合、その色はアルミホイルの色である。コンタクトレンズの潜在的購入者がブリスターパッケージの透明なボウル部分を通して見る場合、そのユーザは、自身の眼に装着したときにレンズがどのように見えるのかを正確に思い描くことができない。着色コンタクトレンズに利用可能な色の数及び範囲を考慮して、美容用コンタクトレンズの潜在的購入者が、密閉されているブリスターパッケージを見て、自身の眼に装着したときにそのレンズがどのように見えるのかをレンズを購入する前にうまく思い描くことができれば有益である。以下の発明はこうした要請に応えるものである。   Typically, the foil top of these packages is a single color, and in most cases the color is that of an aluminum foil. When a potential purchaser of a contact lens sees through the transparent bowl portion of the blister package, the user is unable to envision exactly what the lens will look like when worn on their eyes. Considering the number and range of colors available for colored contact lenses, a potential purchaser of a cosmetic contact lens looks at a sealed blister package and what the lens is when worn on their eyes It would be beneficial to be able to imagine how it would look before purchasing a lens. The following invention meets such a demand.

It may be an adhesive laminate. The flexible sheet can be made of a transparent material, such as an adhesive laminate of one or more materials, as long as a portion of the flexible sheet contains the following colored regions. The flexibility may be in full contact with the entire top surface of the flange, preferably the flexible cover sheet is in close contact with the area of the flange that is in close proximity to the cavity. Furthermore, the flexible cover sheet need not cover the entire top surface of the transparent molded base. The “color region” is a part of the flexible cover sheet, and can be seen from the lens facing surface of the flexible cover sheet. Preferably, the color area covers a proportion of the lens facing surface of the flexible sheet, particularly when the contact lens is viewed from the transparent molding base through the contact lens to the color area of the flexible sheet. A portion of the lens-facing surface located below the contact lens (generally known as the “visible region”). The color area preferably covers about 10% to about 100%, more preferably about 20% to about 80%, more preferably about 20% to about 50% of the visible area. The color of the color region is preferably a color that approximates the color of the human iris. Preferred colors in the color region are dark colors such as brown, dark brown, black, and dark gray. This color can be printed on foils or transparent laminates by any of the methods used to make colored laminates.

用語「溶液」は、医療機器が保存される任意の液体媒体を指す。好ましい溶液は、生理学的緩衝液を含有する水溶液である。特に好ましい溶液は、生理食塩水である。   The term “solution” refers to any liquid medium in which a medical device is stored. A preferred solution is an aqueous solution containing a physiological buffer. A particularly preferred solution is physiological saline.
