Özet
Intraocular lenses (IOLs) are materials designed for use in the treatment of a problematic natural lens. Main function of intraocular lenses is correction of refractive indexes. It is important that the material that will be used in intraocular lenses should be appropriate for the natural crystalline lenses of the eye in terms of design and feasibility. IOL materials should include the homogeneity, refractive index, and transparency properties of natural eyepieces. Since intraocular lenses contain more than one component, the synthesis of polymeric materials used in their production, polymerization and hardening techniques, and optical and mechanical properties direct the success of lens treatment. In this section, polymeric materials used in terms of design strategies to ensure effective treatment management of intraocular lenses are discussed. Also, the biocompatibility, restriction, and future trends of polymeric materials used in the manufacture of IOLs are discussed. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
