Impact of Air Exposure Time on the Water Contact Angles of Daily Disposable Silicone Hydrogels
The wettability of silicone hydrogel (SiHy) contact lens (CLs) is crucial for the pre-lens tear film stability throughout the day. Therefore, sessile drop and captive bubble setups were used to study the advancing and receding water contact angles (CA) of four SiHy materials: narafilcon A (TE), seno...
