3 Terms and Definitions
For the purposes of this standard, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
Contact lenses
Any lenses that can be designed to be worn at the front surface of cornea.
Note: the definition of contact lenses covers the myopic lenses, hypermetropic lenses and trial (diagnosis) lenses.
3.2
Rigid gas permeable contact lenses
The contact lenses made of rigid oxygen permeable material; generally, the polymeric material used for contact lenses contains organic silicon and organic fluorine.
3.3
Rigid gas permeable contact lenses for orthokeratology
The rigid gas permeable contact lenses (hereafter referred to as orthokeratology lenses) intended to change the corneal shape by orthokeratology, thus to remedy ametropia.
3.4
Oxygen permeability (Dk)
The arithmetic product of gas solubility coefficient and diffusion coefficient.
Note 1: it is one of the most common parameters of contact lens materials.
Note 2: Dk value in mmHg is obtained after multiplying the Dk value in hpa, i.e. (cm2/s)[mL O2/(mL·hPa)] or (cm3O2·cm)/(cm·s·hPa), by 1.333 22.
Note 3: oxygen permeability: the oxygen flux of unit thickness of contact lens material at unit pressure difference under certain conditions.
