Problems solved by technology

Existing methods for loading drugs into contact lenses include simple immersion adsorption, molecular imprinting, micro-nanoparticle encapsulation, and ion connection, etc., but these methods have the disadvantages of fast release, obvious burst release effect, high manufacturing cost, and the type of drug loaded. Limitations and other disadvantages

Abstract

The invention relates to a corneal contact lens achieving controlled drug release. The corneal contact lens comprises a semipermeable membrane layer, a water-absorbing expansion layer, an impermeableelastic membrane layer and a drug storage layer which are arranged in sequence from bottom to top; the drug storage layer is provided with a storage cavity used for storing drugs and a microchannel allowing the drugs to flow out, the semipermeable membrane layer makes contact with the cornea, and allows water in tears to enter the water-absorbing expansion layer, the elastic membrane layer isolates the storage cavity of the drug storage layer and the water-absorbing expansion layer, when the water-absorbing expansion layer absorbs the water in the tears to expand, the storage cavity is compressed through the elastic membrane layer, and the drugs can be lowly released to the eye through the microchannel. Accordingly, drug release is conducted on the eye in a non-invasive mode, and pain of apatient in an operation is avoided; drug release is achieved through imbibition actuating, and can last for longer time, and more and diverse drugs can be stored.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a corneal contact lens with controlled drug release. Background technique [0002] Common eye diseases such as keratitis, conjunctivitis and glaucoma have brought many adverse effects on people's lives. In the course of drug treatment, eye drops are commonly used. However, this drip administration method has many disadvantages. First of all, the tear film covered on the cornea will dilute the concentration of the administered drug; secondly, the continuous secretion of tears will cause the drug to be lost too quickly; finally, the dripping of the drug often brings discomfort to the patient. Studies have shown that during drip administration, the retention time of the drug in the tear film is only 2-3 minutes, and the administration efficiency is as low as 1%-5%. This is because when the eye drops enter the eye through the conjunctiva, most of the eye drops pass Conjunctival capillaries enter systemic blood circulation, there...
