Contact lens physical properties and lipid deposition in a novel characterized artificial tear solution.

Abstract

PURPOSE: To characterize various properties of a physiologically-relevant artificial tear solution (ATS) containing a range of tear film components within a complex salt solution, and to measure contact lens parameters and lipid deposition of a variety of contact lens materials after incubation in this ATS. METHODS: A complex ATS was developed that contains a range of salts, proteins, lipids, mucin, and other tear film constituents in tear-film …
