ABSTRACT:
The ultraviolet screening of a silicone rubber intraocular lens can be enhanced by the addition of an optical brightener. The optical brightener also serves to reduce any apparent yellow tint that may occur. The optical brightener is incorporated into the preformed silicone lens by immersing it in a solution containing the optical brightener and an ultraviolet screening agent.
