Ultraviolet and Visible Transmittance of Soft Contact Lenses with and without Ultraviolet Blockers.

Significance: Ultraviolet (UV) and visible light transmittance of soft contact lenses (SCLs) was measured. A significant difference in UV transmittance has been found between SCLs with a positive and negative back vertex power (BVP). It can be shown that thicker SCLs absorb more UV radiation.Purpose...
