[Absorption and fluorescence spectrometry measurement of intraocular lenses].
Light absorption and fluorescence measurements can be used to detect accumulations of small molecules in intraocular lenses (IOLs). It was shown that HEMA IOLs can store and to some extent release a variety of drugs and fluorescein. PMMA and silicone IOLs, however, do not have this characteristic. UV-blocking IOLs absorb UV light completely. The absorption limit varies between 390 and 410 nm, depending on the make. Neither absorption nor fluorescence response were affected by exposure to UV light or heat.
