Abstract:
The times of uptake and release of pilocarpine solution by soft contact lenses were studied with spectrophometer in vitro. The uptake time was about 30 minutes and the releasing time was stationary after 30 minutes. The lower concentriction of pilocarpine solution was generally rapid uptake and release than higher.
