Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for absorbing or discharging water in an ophthalmic medical device and an ophthalmic medical device.
- Tear fluid is a dilute aqueous solution containing lipids and electrolytes (about 98% is water), and the tear meniscus on the back of the lower eyelid blinks to form a liquid film of about 7 ⁇ m on the eyeball to protect the eyeball surface from foreign matter and infection. It protects and supplies oxygen and nutrients to the cornea. Further, in order to obtain clear vision, it is necessary that tear fluid is sufficiently supplied to the surface of the keratoconjunctiva.

In the past, contact lenses for dry eye patients were contraindicated, but recently, there is a tendency to prescribe contact lenses for patients in need even with dry eyes.

- S4 is about 100 C/g and copolymer S5 is about 150 C/g.
- the electrical resistance was measured by a glass plate (short side 26 mm, long side 4 mm, short side 4 mm, long side 7.5 mm, interval 6 mm) having two gold electrodes, a positive electrode and a negative electrode obtained by sputtering and patterning a gold electrode.
- a molded piece was attached so as to straddle the electrodes on a side of 32 mm and a thickness of 1 mm), and the method was carried out by the AC impedance method using an electrochemical analyzer ALS 7082E (BAS Co., Ltd.).
- an AC frequency of 1 kHz to 100 kHz, a voltage amplitude of 5 mV, and an absolute value of impedance at 82.5 kHz as an electric resistance were adopted.
- the molded piece was infiltrated with McIlvaine buffer (150 mM, pH 7.0) as an electrolyte solution, and all experiments were carried out under the conditions of maintaining a temperature of 25 ° C. and a humidity of 35%.
- McIlvaine buffer 150 mM, pH 7.0

- FIG. 5D was obtained in consideration of the change in the cross-sectional area of the sample due to drying. It was confirmed that the water content and the conductivity were in a proportional relationship, and it was verified that the proper measurement was performed (FIG. 5D).
- Example 2 Using the above-mentioned copolymers S1 to S5, a molded piece (corresponding to the thickness of a contact lens) having a thickness of 0.15 mm is produced, and a glove box and a humidifier are provided to slow down the evaporation rate and facilitate measurement.
- the relationship between the water content and the conductivity was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the humidity was maintained at 70% by using. From this result, the relationship between the water content and the conductivity (slope of a line) does not change significantly depending on the gel composition, but as the content of methacrylic acid (monomer having a fixed charge) increases, the conductivity becomes more conductive. The value was shown to increase. This indicates that the counter cation (Na + ) of the carboxy group derived from methacrylic acid is the main conductive carrier.
- Example 3 Hydrogel water retention by electroosmotic flow- Utilizing the fact that the water content can be monitored by the conductivity, the water retention of the hydrogel sheet (0.15 mm thickness) by the electroosmotic flow was evaluated.
- a hydrogel sheet is sandwiched between two carbon electrodes (for electroosmotic flow generation), two positive and negative electrodes arranged on an acrylic plate at 6 mm intervals, and two gold electrodes (for conductivity measurement), which are patterned on a glass plate.
- the top and bottom of the gel sheet were in contact with each other with a length of 4 mm, and the intermediate portion having a length of 6 mm was exposed so as not to prevent natural drying (FIGS. 7A and 7B).
- the hydrogel sheet was a copolymer S4 in which the amount of methacrylic acid added was 10 wt%. For handling, it was prepared using a copolymer S4 having mechanical strength. Since no voltage was applied for the first 25 minutes, a decrease in conductivity due to natural drying was observed. After that, for 30 minutes, the buffer solution was pumped up by energization (about 0.2 mA) by applying 4 V to the carbon electrode, so that the conductivity reduced by natural drying was recovered.
- the polarity of voltage application is negative in the upper part of the hydrogel sheet and positive in the lower part of the hydrogel sheet. Then, when the polarity was reversed and 4 V was applied to the carbon electrode and the buffer aqueous solution was discharged from the hydrogel sheet, a decrease in conductivity was observed, which indicates that the hydrogel sheet was dried again (FIG. 7C). These results indicate that the hydrogel sheet can be prevented from being dried by the energization by the voltage application.
- Example 4 The generation of electroosmotic flow was confirmed by direct observation.
- a 4 mm end of the hydrogel sheet on the negative electrode side was immersed in a McKilvein buffer aqueous solution (pH 7.0), and electricity was applied (about 0.2 mA) by applying 4 V.

- the electroosmotic flow is generated inside the hydrogel sheet, and what is observed here is the movement of the surface water film dragged by the flow inside the hydrogel sheet, or the flow due to the buffer solution overflowing from the inside of the gel.
- Example 5 Water retention of contact lenses- [1] Energization by External Power Supply A contact lens (MA 5 wt%) having the composition of the copolymer S2 was placed on the cornea of a pig eye, and about 1/3 of the contact lens was dipped in an aqueous solution of PBS buffer. Voltage (3 V or -3 V) was applied using a product (FIG. 9A). The contact lens had a thickness of 0.15 mm. Further, the tweezers-shaped electrode was fixed in position by pinching the end portion of the contact lens. From the results shown in FIG.
- the aluminum electrode and the carbon electrode were electrically connected by a stainless steel conductive member passing through the lens (not shown).
- the current value was measured by a measuring device connected to the aluminum electrode and the carbon electrode outside the lens. From the results shown in FIG. 10B, due to the effect of the upward electroosmotic flow, the current reflecting the wet state continued to flow even after 12 hours. This result indicates that by equipping the contact lens with a battery, it is possible to absorb and retain water without wiring to the outside.
- the anode is not limited to aluminum, but in principle metal-air batteries and all batteries are applicable.
- a contact lens (thickness 0.15 mm) produced by using the copolymer S2 was provided with a fructose/O 2 bio-battery by an enzyme electrode (FIG. 11A ), and was covered on a pig eye to generate electricity. The water retention by the permeation flow was verified.
- the enzyme electrode of the anode is a carbon cloth (CF) on which fructose dehydrogenase (FDH) is immobilized
- the enzyme electrode of the cathode is CF on which bilirubin oxidase (BOD) is immobilized.
- FDH oxidizes fructose and BOD is an enzyme that catalyzes an electrode reaction that reduces O 2 .
- McIlvaine buffer solution 150 mM, pH 5.0
- the FDH electrode and the BOD electrode were electrically connected by a conductive member made of stainless steel.
- the current value was measured by a measuring device connected to the FDH electrode and the BOD electrode.
- FIG. 11B stable energization was confirmed for 12 hours or more, suggesting the possibility that water could be absorbed and retained by the biocell using the enzyme electrode.
- the enzyme used for the enzyme electrode all redox enzymes such as glucose oxidase, glucose dehydrogenase, amino acid oxidase, lactate oxidase, and laccase can be applied.
- the contact lens of the present invention has an appropriate water absorption capacity and/or water discharge capacity, and by increasing the flow rate of tear fluid on the front surface and the ocular surface of the contact lens, tear fluid can be spread over the corneal surface and dried. The feeling can be reduced. As a result, the contact lens can be worn for a long time. Furthermore, when the water contained in the contact lens contains a drug or the like, when the water absorbed in the lens is released, the drug or the like contained in the contact lens is also released. Can be effectively spread over the eye surface.
