Abstract
The current invention provides a method of forming a foldable intraocular having a high refractive index from a copolymer comprising a first monomer comprising an aryl acrylate or an aryl methacrylate; a second monomer comprising an aromatic ring comprising a substituent having one ethylenic unsaturation, provided that the second monomer is not an aryl acryate or aryl methacrylate, and a third monomer comprising one ethylenic unsaturation that, if polymerized into a homopolymer, forms a high water content hydrogel; and, optionally, a cross-linking agent.
