Definitions
- This invention relates to high refractive index polymers and their use in ophthalmic lenses, particularly intraocular lenses that can be inserted through small incisions.
- High refractive index acrylic materials are known for use in intraocular lenses (lOLs).
- lOLs intraocular lenses
- U.S. Patent No. 5,290,892 discloses high refractive index acrylic materials suitable for use as IOL materials. The materials are foldable and thus capable of being inserted through small incisions. These acrylic materials contain, as principal components, two aryl acrylic monomers.
- foldable acrylic intraocular lenses develop "glistenings" or “vacuoles” when implanted in humans or soaked in water at physiological temperatures. These microvacuoles appear to be pockets of water approximately 1 ⁇ m or greater in diameter. Glistenings are often too small to be seen by the naked eye, but are sometimes observed using a slit-lamp. Although glistenings have no detrimental effect on the function or performance of IOLs made from acrylic materials, it is nevertheless cosmetically desirable to minimize or eliminate them.
- ophthalmic device materials including IOL materials, containing less than 15% by weight of certain polymerizable surfactants.
- the polymerizable surfactants are poloxamers and poloxamines, which are generally available under the PLURONIC and TETRONIC tradenames.
- One advantage of adding such polymerizable surfactants as comonomers in forming polymeric devices is said to be changed or improved device surface properties, such as lipid or protein uptake. It was determined that the functionalized surfactants did not affect mechanical properties of the device materials as the addition of the polymerizable surfactants produced no real change in the modulus or tear strength (see Example 17 of 2006/0275342 A1).
- the surfactants are chemically modified to make them polymerizable as comonomers.
- unmodified surfactants were incorporated into a hydrogel contact lens material during polymerization, it was noted that upon hydration the lenses would become cloudy.
- methacrylated counterparts of the unmodified surfactants were used, however, optical clarity was maintained after hydration (see Example 16 and Figures 6 - 8 of 2006/0275342 A1).
- the ophthalmic device materials comprise a) device forming monomers consisting essentially of a single polymerizable monomer of the structure:
- Z is H or CH 3 ;
- X is (CH 2 )m or 0(CH 2 CH 2 O) n ; m is 2 - 6; n is 1 - 6; and
- Ar is phenyl which can be unsubstituted or substituted with CH3,
- These device materials can be used to form intraocular lenses that have high refractive indexes, are flexible and transparent, can be inserted into the eye through a relatively small incision, and recover their original shape after having been inserted. Moreover, IOLs made from these materials are free or substantially free of glistenings compared to otherwise identical materials lacking the non-polymerizable surfactant.
- the present invention is based upon the finding that the ophthalmic device materials obtained by copolymerizing one monomer of structure (I) and a cross-linking agent with the specified non-polymerizable surfactants are clear. Additionally, unlike when other propylene oxide-ethylene oxide-propylene oxide block copolymer surfactants are added to a monomer of structure (I) to obtain ophthalmic device materials, when a non-polymerizable propylene oxide-ethylene oxide-propylene oxide block copolymer surfactant having an average molecular weight of approximately 3600 and an ethylene oxide unit content of approximately 40% by weight or a non-polymerizable ethylene oxide-propylene oxide-ethylene oxide block copolymer surfactant having an average molecular weight of approximately 5900 and an ethylene oxide content of approximately 40% by weight is added, the device materials are free or substantially free of glistenings.
- the ophthalmic device materials of the present invention comprise device forming monomers consisting essentially of a single monomer of the structure: Z
- Z is H or CH 3 ;
- X is (CH 2 )m or 0(CH 2 CH 2 O) n ; m is 2 - 6; n is 1 - 6; and
- Ar is phenyl which can be unsubstituted or substituted with CH3,
- Monomers of structure (I) can be made by methods known in the art.
- the conjugate alcohol of the desired monomer can be combined in a reaction vessel with methyl acrylate, tetrabutyl titanate (catalyst), and a polymerization inhibitor such as 4-benzyloxy phenol.
- the vessel can then be heated to facilitate the reaction and distill off the reaction by-products to drive the reaction to completion.
- Alternative synthesis schemes involve adding acrylic acid to the conjugate alcohol and catalyzing with a carbodiimide or mixing the conjugate alcohol with acryloyl chloride and a base such as pyridine or triethylamine.
- Suitable monomers of structure (I) include, but are not limited to: 2- phenoxyethyl acrylate; 3-phenoxypropyl acrylate; 4-phenoxybutyl acrylate; polyethylene glycol phenyl ether acrylate; and their corresponding methacrylates.
- Preferred monomers of structure (I) are those wherein X is (CH 2 ) m ; rn is 2 - 4, and Ar is phenyl. Most preferred is 2-phenoxyethyl acrylate.
- the total amount of the monomer of structure (I) contained in the device materials of the present invention is generally about 75% by weight or more, and is preferably about 80 - 90 % by weight, of the total amount of polymerizable components of the ophthalmic device materials. Most preferably, the total amount of monomer of structure (I) contained in the device materials of the present invention is 87 - 90 % by weight.
- the ophthalmic device materials of the present invention also contain a polymerizable cross-linking agent.

- D amount of non-polymerizable block copolymer surfactant contained in the ophthalmic device materials of the present invention is generally 5 - 15 % by weight, and is preferably 9 - 11 % by weight.
- the proportions of the monomers to be included in the copolymers of the present invention are preferably chosen so that the copolymer has a glass transition temperature (T 9 ) not greater than about 37 0 C, which is normal human body temperature. Copolymers having glass transition temperatures higher than 37 0 C are not suitable for use in foldable 10Ls; such lenses could only be rolled or folded at temperatures above 37 0 C and would not unroll or unfold at normal body temperature.
- copolymers having a glass transition temperature somewhat below normal body temperature and no greater than normal room temperature e.g., about 20 - 25 ° C, in order that IOLs made of such copolymers can be rolled or folded conveniently at room temperature.
- T 9 is measured by differential scanning calorimetry at 10 °C/min., and is determined at the midpoint of the transition of the heat flux curve.
- the materials of the present invention preferably exhibit sufficient strength to allow devices made of them to be folded or manipulated without fracturing.
- the copolymers of the present invention will have an elongation of at least 80%, preferably at least 100%, and most preferably between 110 and 200%. This property indicates that lenses made of such materials generally will not crack, tear or split when folded. Elongation of polymer samples is determined on dumbbell shaped tension test specimens with a 20 mm total length, length in the grip area of 4.88 mm, overall width of 2.49 mm, 0.833 mm width of the narrow section, a fillet radius of 8.83 mm, and a thickness of 0.9 mm.

- IOLs made of the ophthalmic device materials of the present invention are free or substantially free of glistenings when measured according to the following test ("the Glistening Test").
- the presence of glistenings is measured by placement of a lens or disk sample into a vial and adding deionized water or a balanced salt solution.
- the vial is then placed into a water bath preheated to 45 0 C. Samples are to be maintained in the bath for 24 ⁇ 2 hours.
- the vial is then removed from the water bath and allowed to equilibrate at room temperature for 2 ⁇ 0.5 hours.
- the sample is removed from the vial and placed on a microscope slide. The sample is inspected visually in various on angle or off angle lighting to evaluate clarity.
- Visualization of glistenings is done with light microscopy using a magnification of 10 to 100x.
- a sample is judged to be free of glistenings if, at 10 - 100x magnification, the number of glistenings detected in the eyepiece is zero.
- a sample is judged to be substantially free of glistenings if, at 10 - 100x magnification, the number of glistenings detected in the eyepiece is less than about 2/mm 3 .
- the sample is rastered throughout the entire volume of the lens, varying the magnification levels (10 - 100x), the aperture iris diaphragm, and the field conditions (using both bright field and dark field conditions) in an attempt to detect the presence of glistenings.
- the ultraviolet absorbing material may also be included in the materials of the present invention.
- the ultraviolet absorbing material can be any compound which absorbs ultraviolet light, i.e., light having a wavelength shorter than about 400 nm, but does not absorb any substantial amount of visible light.
- the ultraviolet absorbing compound is incorporated into the monomer mixture and is entrapped in the polymer matrix when the monomer mixture is polymerized.
- Suitable ultraviolet absorbing compounds include substituted benzophenones, such as 2-hydroxybenzophenone, and 2-(2- hydroxyphenyl)benzotriazoles. It is preferred to use an ultraviolet absorbing i compound which is copolymerizable with the monomers and is thereby covalently bound to the polymer matrix. In this way possible leaching of the ultraviolet absorbing compound out of the lens and into the interior of the eye is minimized.
- Suitable copolymerizable ultraviolet absorbing compounds are the substituted 2-hydroxybenzophenones disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 4,304,895
- the most preferred ultraviolet absorbing compounds are 2-(2'- hydroxy-3'-methallyl-5'-methyl phenyl) benzotriazole and 2-(3'-ferf-butyl-2'- hydroxy-5'-methacryloylpropoxyphenyl)-5-methoxy-2H-benzotriazole
- ophthalmic devices made of the copolymers of the present invention may include colored dyes, such as the yellow dyes disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 5,470,932.

- the IOLs can be of what is known as a one piece or multipiece design.
- an IOL comprises an optic and at least one haptic.
- the optic is that portion which serves as the lens and the haptics are attached to the optic and are like arms which hold the optic in its proper place in the eye.
- the optic and haptic(s) can be of the same or different material.
- a multipiece lens is so called because the optic and the haptic(s) are made separately and then the haptics are attached to the optic.
- the optic and the haptics are formed out of one piece of material. Depending on the material, the haptics are then cut, or lathed, out of the material to produce the IOL.
- the ophthalmic device materials of the present invention are also suitable for use in other devices, including contact lenses, keratoprostheses, intracorneal lenses, corneal inlays or rings, and glaucoma filtration devices.
