Characterization of Lipid Deposition on Contact Lenses
(University of Waterloo, 2017-08-30)The purpose of this thesis was to evaluate the influence of lipid deposition on silicone hydrogel contact lens materials and to construct an in vitro platform to further explore the effect of lipid interaction with contact ... -
Investigating The Impact of Multipurpose Solutions Released From Silicone Hydrogel Lenses on Corneal Epithelial Cells, in vitro
(University of Waterloo, 2010-01-22)Cytotoxicity of Multi-Purpose Solutions (MPS) is commonly tested on cells using diluted MPS or extracts from MPS soaked contact lenses. There is evidence that lens type will affect uptake and release of compounds contained ... -
Lipid Deposition on Hydrogel Contact Lenses
(University of Waterloo, 2006)The primary objective of this study was to quantify and characterise lipid deposition on soft (hydrogel) contact lenses, particularly those containing siloxane components. Studies involving a variety of <em>in vitro</em> ...
