Abstract
Objective To develop a newly intraocular len, silicone intraocular lenses were modified with titanium and titanium nitride by the technique of surface modification. Methods In vitro cellular toxic experiment was performed with platelet adhesion, attachment and growth of macrophage, silicone oil adhesion to intraocular lenses. Results The modified intraocular lenses had less adherence to platelets, macrophages and silicone oil than the unmodified intraocular lenses. Conclusion The biocompatibility of the modified silicone intraocular lenses was improved by surface modification.
