Abstract
null null This paper reports an increase in the optical reflectivity of two kinds of copolymers used in contact lenses, with different proportions of silicon and fluorine derivatives, when irradiated with 4.1 MeV alpha particles from an 241Am source. The fiber-optic reflectance technique showed that the lens with a higher proportion of silicon and fluorine content and a lower proportion of methyl-methacrylate is more susceptible to alpha...
