Definitions
- This invention relates to packaging solutions for use with contact lenses.
- the invention provides packaging solutions for use with contact lenses made of hydrophobic materials.
- contact lenses are made of materials with high oxygen permeabilities, or oxygen permeabilities of about 10 Dk or greater. However, as a material's oxygen permeability increases, typically the material becomes increasingly hydrophobic.
- the invention provides a packaging solution for contact lenses made of hydrophobic materials.
- the invention provides a packaging solution for contact lenses made of hydrophobic materials that substantially prevents adherence of the lenses to a package's surfaces.
- the invention provides a contact lens packaging solution comprising, consisting essentially of, and consisting of between about QU and about 250 ppm of a surfactant, preferably 0J to about 40 ppm, more preferably about 1 to about 40 ppm, wherein the surfactant has a hydrophile-lipophile balance of about 10 to about 30. It is an unexpected discovery of the invention that the use of very small amounts of certain surfactants in a lens packaging solution substantially prevents adherence of the hydrophobic lens to a package surfaces substantially eliminating breakage or deformation of the lens in the package.
- hydrophobic lens is a lens made from at least one hydrophobic monomer.
- the packaging solutions of the invention may find particular utility when used for the storage of non-ionic lenses.
- Lenses for use with the solutions of the invention may be made from acquafilcon, alphafilcon, atlafilcon, etafilcon, bulifilcon, lenefilcon, lidifilcon, lotrafilcon, methafilcon, ocufilcon, perfilcon, phemfilcon, vilifilcon, Saufon, Hydron, and the like, and combinations thereof.
- the lens is an acquafilcon or lenefilcon lens.
- the surfactants suitable for use in the invention are of any suitable molecular weight, preferably about 200 to about 1,000,000, more preferably about 10,000 to about 18,000, most preferably about 12,000 to about 18,000.
- Useful surfactants have a hydrophile-lipophile balance ("HLB") of about 10 to about 30, preferably about 15 to about 25, more preferably about 18 to about 23.
- HLB hydrophile-lipophile balance
- any of the known surfactants fitting the aforementioned criteria may be used in the solution of the invention provided that the surfactant is compatible, in terms of solubility, in the solution with which it is used.
- suitable surfactants include, without limitation, cationic, ionic, non-ionic surfactants, and combinations thereof.
- the use of a lens packaging solution containing cationic and ionic surfactants may cause eye irritation. Therefore, preferably the surfactant is a non- ionic surfactant.
- Suitable non-ionic surfactants for use in the invention include, without limitation, polyethylene glycol esters of fatty acids, such as polysorbate 20, 60 or 80, all available as TWEEN® surfactants, alkanolamides, amine oxides, ethoxylated alcohols and acids, and surfactants having one or more poly(oxyalkylene) chains, such as poloxamine or poloxamer surfactants, and the like, and combinations thereof.
- the surfactant is a polysorbate or poloxamer surfactant.
- Poloxamer surfactants are commercially available under the name PLURONIC® that are polyoxyethylene - polyoxypropylene non-ionic surfactants having polyoxy ethyl hydrophilic group ends that make up about 10 to about 80 percent by weight of the molecule. Although any of the PLURONIC® surfactants are preferred, particularly preferred for use in the invention is PLURONIC® 127, which is about 70 percent by weight ethylene oxide and has a molecular weight of about 12,000 to about 15,0000.
- the surfactant may be combined with any known active and carrier components useful for lens packaging solution.
- suitable active ingredients for lens packaging solutions include, without limitation, antibacterial agents, anti-dryness agents, such as polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinylpyrrolidone, and dextran, tonicity agents, and the like, and combinations thereof.
- the packaging solution may be any water-based solution that is used for the storage of contact lenses.
- Typical solutions include, without limitation, saline solutions, other buffered solutions, and deionized water.
- the preferred aqueous solution is saline solution containing salts including, without limitation, sodium chloride, sodium borate, sodium phosphate, sodium hydrogenphosphate, sodium dihydrogenphosphate, or the corresponding potassium salts of the same. These ingredients are generally combined to form buffered solutions that include an acid and its conjugate base, so that addition of acids and bases cause only a relatively small
- the buffered solutions may additionally include 2-(N- morpholino)ethanesulfonic acid (MES), sodium hydroxide, 2,2- bis(hydroxymethyl)-2,2',2"-nitrilotriethanol, n-tris(hydroxymethyl)methyl-2- aminoethanesulfonic acid, citric acid, sodium citrate, sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, acetic acid, sodium acetate, and the like and combinations thereof.
- the solution is a borate buffered or phosphate buffered saline solution.
- the surfactant along with any additional ingredients are combined with the water-based solution, stirred, and dissolved.
- the pH of the solution preferably is adjusted to about 6.2 to about 7.5.
- the lens to be stored in the packaging solution of the invention is immersed in the solution and the solution and lens placed in the package in which the lens is to be stored.
- the solution may be placed into the package and the lens then placed, into the solution.
- the package is then sealed by any convenient method, such as by heat sealing, and undergoes a suitable sterilization procedure.
