Concepts and applications for functionalized contact lenses and keratoprostheses The development of biofunctionalized materials represents a paradigm shift in contact lens technology. By mimicking natural biological structures such as mucins through synthetic (glyco)polymers, researchers are creating advanced materials with tailored properties for improved wearing comfort, therapeutic drug delivery, enhanced biocompatibility, and diagnostic applications. These biomimetic…

With the popularization of orthokeratology and the revival of scleral lenses, RGP lenses represent an important sector for manufacturers of special contact lenses. Their manufacture requires the use of a very sophisticated machine park.
