ABSTRACT:
A method for sterilizing a medical device having a hydrophilic coating using radiation, said method including the steps of bringing the medical device having such coating in contact with an aqueous liquid for wetting the hydrophilic coating, said liquid including a solution of a hydrophilic polymer, and sterilizing the device by applying a sufficient amount of radiation to provide a coated device showing a significantly increased and prolonged water retention and lower friction coefficient when wet.
