Claims16
An ophthalmic implant comprising an antimicrobial polymer, comprising:
- at least one antimicrobial monomer, wherein the antimicrobial monomer is a quaternary ammonium salt based monomer selected from 1-[12-(methacryloyloxy)dodecyl]-pyridinium bromide (MDPB), methacryloxylethyl cetyl dimethyl ammonium chloride (DMAE-CB), 2-methacryloxyethyl dodecyl methyl ammonium bromide (MAE-DB), 2-methacryloxyethyl hexadecyl methyl ammonium bromide (MAE-HB), and bis(2-methacryloxyethyl) dimethyl ammonium bromide (IDMA-1);
- and
- at least one other monomer selected from an acrylic, vinyl and collagen monomer;
- and wherein the ophthalmic implant is an artificial cornea, a glaucoma valve, a retinal prosthesis, or an intracorneal implant.
