Книга "Contact Lenses" автор Johannes Karl Fink рассказывает об химии и свойствах контактных линз, а также об их методах изготовления. Учитывая растущую исследовательскую активность в этой области, данная всесторонняя книга исследует за последние 10 лет новые материалы, методы химии, применение и способы изготовления. Новые приложения включают в себя доставку лекарств, линзы для дополненной реальности, электронные контактные линзы и умные контактные линзы Wearable Smart Contact Lenses. Кроме того, в книге обсуждаются методы моделирования для контактных линз, такие как параметры топографии глазного дна
Johannes Karl Finks’ book Contact Lenses centers on the already existing lens material and chemistry, considering also the recent 10-year advancements of materials and techniques in the realm of contact and special types of lenses. The author also touches on new developments, such as contact lenses embedded with drugs, intelligent contact lenses able to deliver medications only where needed, and contact lenses with linked sensors for diagnosis purposes. Moreover, Fink dwells on computer simulations of contact systems, parameters that control the movement of oxygen and carbon dioxide into the eye, computerized axial tomography—that is, the technique that allows better analyzing contact conditions in use. It goes on to address the specific processes involved in contact lens manufacture, such as lithography, reactive etching, among others, as well prognostic characteristics of contact lenses as, for example, measurement methods. So what’s in store for the readers in this book? “Tearing” operational conditions, assessment assessment trends in medicinal contact prevention, and lots more!

Описание книги от Johannes Karl Fink
CONTACT LENSES The book focuses on the chemistry and properties of contact lenses and their fabrication methods. With research & development continuing in the field, this comprehensive book takes a look at the last 10 years in terms of new materials, chemistry methods, applications, and fabrication techniques. New applications include drug delivery, lenses for augmented reality, electronic contact lenses, and wearable smart contact lenses. In addition, the book discusses simulation methods for contact lenses, such as ocular topography parameters, gas permeable lenses, and computerized videokeratography. On the fabrication front, several common fabrication methods for contact lenses are detailed, including the computer-aided contact lens design, methods for the fabrication of colored contact lenses, and the fabrication of decentered contact lenses. Special processes are reviewed, including, mold processes, reactive ion etching, electrospinning, and others. Also discussed are the properties of contact lenses and methods for the measurement. Many of the standard methods are discussed, but other issues are taken up too including a discussion on the assessment of cytotoxic effects, the Schirmer tear test, and others. The book concludes with a chapter detailing the possible medical problems related to contact lenses and how to avoid them. These include eye diseases, allergic and toxic reactions, as well as methods for medical treatment such as disinfection agents. Audience The book will be used by chemists, polymer scientists, ophthalmologists, engineers in the contact lens industry as well as polymer industries.
