Optically transparent, relatively high refractive index polymeric compositions
and ophthalmic devices such as intraocular lenses, contact lenses and corneal inlays
made therefrom are described herein. The preferred polymeric compositions are produced
through the polymerization of one or more siloxysilane monomers or the copolymerization
of one or more siloxysilane monomers with one or more aromatic or non-aromatic
non-siloxy monomers, hydrophobic monomers or hydrophilic monomers.
