Abstract
Described is an ophthalmic device that contains visible light filters. The ophthalmic device is a free radical reaction product of a reactive mixture comprising: one or more monomers suitable for making the ophthalmic device; a first visible light filtering compound, the first visible light filtering compound having a visible light absorption maximum between 430 and 480 nm and a full width half maximum (FWHM) at the visible light absorption maximum of at least 35 nm and up to 150 nanometers, wherein the compound is photostable, and wherein the compound has a molar extinction coefficient of at least 7740 L·mol-1·cm-1; and a second visible light filtering compound. The devices may provide one or more benefits to wearers, including enhanced macular pigment optical density (MPOD), as well as improved color perception and color enhancement.
