19、standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
20、 organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules g
21、iven in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at leas
22、t 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 18369-4 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 17

This first edition cancels and replaces ISO 9913-1:1996, ISO 9913-2:2000, ISO 9914:1995, ISO 10339:1997, ISO 10340:1995 and ISO 11984:1999, which have been technically revised.

25、69 series applies to contact lenses, which are devices worn over the front surface of the eye in contact with the preocular tear film. This part of ISO 18369 covers rigid (hard) corneal and scleral contact lenses, as well as soft contact lenses. Rigid lenses maintain their own shape unsupported and
26、are made of transparent optical-grade plastics, such as polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), cellulose acetate butyrate (CAB), polyacrylate/siloxane copolymers, rigid polysiloxanes (silicone resins), butylstyrenes, fluoropolymers, and fluorosiloxanes, etc. Soft contact lenses are easily deformable and req
27、uire support for proper shape. A very large subset of soft contact lenses consists of transparent hydrogels containing water in concentrations greater than 10 %. Soft contact lenses can also be made of non-hydrogel materials, e.g. flexible polysiloxanes (silicone elastomers). The ISO 18369 series is
28、 applicable to determining allowable tolerances of parameters and properties important for proper functioning of contact lenses as optical devices. The ISO 18369 includes tolerances for single vision contact lenses, bifocal lenses, lenses that alter the flux density and/or spectral composition of tr
29、ansmitted visible light (tinted or pigmented contact lenses, such as those with enhancing, handling, and/or opaque tints), and lenses that significantly attenuate ultraviolet radiation (UV-absorbing lenses). The ISO 18369 series of standards covers contact lenses designed with spherical, toric, and
30、aspheric surfaces, and recommended methods for the specification of contact lenses. EN ISO 18369-4:2006blank1Ophthalmic optics Contact lenses Part 4: Physicochemical properties of contact lens materials 1 Scope This part of ISO 18369 specifies the methods of testing the physicochemical properties of
31、 contact lens materials. These are extraction, rigid lens flexure and breakage, oxygen permeability, refractive index and water content. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

34、thods and units of measure The physicochemical properties or conditions listed in Table 1 are measurable characteristics of hydrogel and nonhydrogel materials that have been successfully manufactured into contact lenses. In addition, Table 1 includes repeatability, test methods, and units of measure
35、 for these characteristics. If alternative methods are used, they should be so stipulated.

37、and definitions given in ISO 18369-1. 4.2 Extractables 4.2.1 General Soxhlet extraction with different solvents is a standard method for quantitative determination of substances extractable from contact lenses. The contact lenses are dried to constant mass and the difference between the original dry
38、 mass of the lenses and the extracted dry mass determines the quantity of extractable substances (extractables). Knowledge of the quantity and identity of extractable substances is helpful in evaluating new contact lens materials and in determining the subsequent pre-clinical examination programme.
39、The material extracted from the contact lenses may be examined by appropriate chromatographic, spectrophotometric, and wet analytical methods to identify residual monomers, cross-linking agents, catalysts, etc. that were employed in the polymerization process. 4.2.2 Principle This method uses a norm
40、al Soxhlet extraction apparatus. Water and at least one suitable organic solvent are used for extraction. In selecting the organic solvent(s) to be used, consideration should be given to the effect of the solvent upon the matrix of the material. Ideally, a solvent should not swell or degrade the con
41、tact lens material. However, in the development of new contact lens materials, a solvent that causes reversible swelling may give valuable information relating to the possibility for extraction over extended periods of time. 4.2.3 Apparatus A standard borosilicate glass Soxhlet extraction apparatus
42、(see Figure 1) consisting of the Soxhlet extractor (30 ml suggested), condenser, round bottom flask (100 ml suggested), and a heating mantle shall be used. A perforated stainless steel, sintered glass, paper or equivalent extraction thimble fitted with a glass wool plug or other suitable closure sha
43、ll be used. A vacuum oven or equivalent drying apparatus and an analytical balance capable of weighing to 0,1 mg are required. 4.2.4 Reagents Distilled or deionized water complying with Grade 3 of ISO 3696:1987 shall be used. The appropriate organic solvent (see Table 2) should be analytical grade o
44、r better. Laboratory-grade boiling stones or anti-bumping granules are required along with a suitable active desiccant. Selection of the desiccant will depend upon the characteristics of the test material. EN ISO 18369-4:20063Figure 1 Extraction apparatus Table 2 Guide to the selection of solvents f

The method of preparing and finishing the lenses shall re
48、flect as far as possible the normal production processes including sterilization. A sufficient number of lenses shall be used so that the total dry mass before extraction shall be no less than 200 mg. Hydrophilic lenses are usually packaged in a solution containing inorganic salts. When using water
49、as the extracting solution, an adjustment in the calculation should be made for the contribution of the inorganic salt of the packaging solution. The water content of the lenses will be required in order to accurately calculate the contribution of the inorganic salt to the extractables. Alternatively, the lenses may be equilibrated in at least two changes of water each for 24 h at room temperature prior to beginning the test. 4.2.6 Test procedure Dry the lenses, preferably under vacuum, at 60 C 5 C to constant mass.
