Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
This invention discloses methods and apparatus for providing an ophthalmic lens with light source capable of providing specific bandwidths of light to an eye of a wearer. In some embodiments, an ophthalmic lens is cast molded from a silicone hydrogel and an energy source and light source encapsulated within the ophthalmic lens.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method of forming an ophthalmic lens, the method comprising: placing an energy source in electrical communication with a light source proximate to a first mold part; depositing a reactive monomer mix into the first mold part; positioning the energy source and light source in contact with the reactive monomer mix; positioning the first mold part proximate to a second mold part thereby forming a lens cavity with the energy source and light source and a…
