Abstract
A soft ocular lens material obtained by copolymerizing polymerizable components comprising (A) a fluorine-containing (meth)acrylate having a hydroxyl group of the formula (I): ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, R.sup.2 is a C.sub.5-15 perfluoroalkyl group, and n is 0 or 1, (B) a hydrophilic monomer, and (C) at least one monomer selected from the group consisting of silicon-containing (meth)acrylates and siloxane-containing styrene derivatives, wherein the ratio of the amount of the fluorine-containing (meth)acrylate (A) to the amount of the hydrophilic monomer (B) is from 20/80 to 70/30 by weight ratio, and the ratio of the total amount of the fluorine-containing (meth)acrylate (A) and the hydrophilic monomer (B) to the amount of the monomer (C) is from 30/70 to 90/10 by weight ratio.
