| Popis: | The contact lens industry and market have displayed a high level of dynamism in the past few decades, and have evolved into a rapidly changing field in which science and everyday practice constantly interact. This work presents the comparative research of characteristics of the basic (commercial) material and nanophotonic materials which were obtained by incorporation of fullerene nanoparticles and its derivate in basic material for soft contact lenses. Basic contact lens material was sintetized of monomer 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), and fullerene and its derivates were used due to their good transmission characteristics in ultraviolet, visible and near infra-red spectrum. For the purposes of characterization of materials for soft contact lenses Optomagnetic Spectroscopy (OMS) was used. OMS is based on difference between diffusely reflected white light and reflected polarized white light. This research contributes to applied optical science and biomedical application industry. |
