Lens Material
The lens material, methafilcon A, is a random copolymer of hydroxyethylmethacrylate and methacrylic acid. The lenses are made by modifying the uncolored methafilcon A lens by affixing a colored pigment on that portion of the front surface that corresponds to the iris. The colored pigments consist of carbazole violet, chromium oxide green, dihydrodinaphto brown, dihydrodioxo yellow, phthalocyanine green, iron oxide red, iron oxide brown, iron oxide black, phthalocyanine blue, and titanium oxide.
