ABSTRACT:
A method of preparing a hydrophilic, biocompatible contact lens characterized by a surface which resists nonspecific protein adsorption. The method involves forming a prepolymer, at least 75% of which are oxyethylene-based diols and polyols having molecular weights of about 7000 to about 30,000. The prepolymer is subsequently gelled and hydrated to produce a hydrated polyurea-polyurethane polymer gel. The hydrated polymer gel is used to obtain a contact lens which resists nonspecific protein adsorption. Preferably, the contact lens are prepared by molding the prepolymer into a contact lens mold, prior to polymerization, to achieve the desired lens shape.
