Formulations (e.g., solutions) comprising one or more water-soluble polymer(s), liposomes, and an aqueous carrier, are provided. The provided solutions are useful for rinsing, and/or immersing therein, a contact lens and/or in the treatment of ocular discomfort, for example, an ocular discomfort associated with a contact lens. Also provided are kits comprising the solution and a contact lens; articles-of-manufacturing comprising the solution and configured for dispending the solution; and methods utilizing the solution.

Surface treatment of contact lens and treatment of ocular discomfort by water soluble polymers and lipids/liposomes

A method of reducing a friction coefficient of a surface is disclosed herein, comprising attaching a water-soluble polymer to the surface, and contacting the water-soluble polymer with liposomes, thereby coating the surface with an amphiphilic lipid. Further disclosed herein are solutions comprising a water-soluble polymer attachable to the surface, liposomes, and an aqueous carrier, for reducing a friction coefficient of a surface, and methods utilizing same. Articles of manufacture comprising a substrate coated by a water-soluble polymer which is coated by an amphiphilic lipid are also described, as are uses and methods for treating a synovial joint disorder associated with increased articular friction.
