Ophthalmic optics - Contact lenses and contact lens care products - Determination of preservative uptake and release (ISO 11986:2017)

This document provides general procedures for the selection of methods, preparation of samples, and
the conduct of testing for the uptake and release of preservatives from contact lenses.
NOTE 1 Due to the manifest difficulties of reproducibility when coating contact lenses with mineral and organic
deposits encountered during lens wear, these methods are only applicable to new and unused contact lenses.
NOTE 2 Preservative depletion by a contact lens in the limited volume of a lens case could compromise
disinfection performance. This document does not measure disinfection performance.

Augenoptik - Kontaktlinsen und Kontaktlinsenpflegemittel - Bestimmung der Aufnahme und Wiederfreisetzung von Konservierungsmitteln (ISO 11986:2017)

Diese Internationale Norm legt die allgemeine Vorgehensweise für die Auswahl von Prüfverfahren, die Vorbereitung von Prüfmustern und die Durchführung von Prüfungen der Aufnahme und Wiederfreisetzung von Konservierungsmitteln durch Kontaktlinsen fest.
ANMERKUNG 1   Aufgrund der offenkundigen Schwierigkeit, Kontaktlinsen in reproduzierbarer Weise mit mineralischen und organischen Ablagerungen, die beim Kontaktlinsentragen auftreten können, zu versehen, gelten diese Verfahren nur für neue und nicht benutzte Kontaktlinsen.
ANMERKUNG 2   Eine übermäßige Aufnahme des Konservierungsmittels aus dem begrenzten Volumen eines Kontakt¬linsen¬behälters durch eine Kontaktlinse könnte sich negativ auf die Desinfektionsleistung auswirken. Diese Internationale Norm behandelt nicht die Messung der Desinfektionsleistung.

Optique ophtalmique - Lentilles de contact et produits d'entretien pour lentilles de contact - Détermination de l'absorption/adsorption et du relargage des conservateurs (ISO 11986:2017)

ISO 11986:2017 fournit des modes opératoires généraux pour sélectionner les différentes méthodes, préparer les échantillons et réaliser des essais portant sur l'absorption/adsorption et le relargage des conservateurs par les lentilles de contact.
NOTE 1    En raison des difficultés évidentes rencontrées pour obtenir de façon reproductible des dépôts minéraux et organiques à la surface des lentilles de contact en cours de port, les présentes méthodes s'appliquent uniquement aux lentilles de contact neuves n'ayant jamais été utilisées.
NOTE 2    L'appauvrissement en conservateurs pour une lentille de contact placée dans le volume limité d'un étui à lentilles pourrait altérer les performances de décontamination. Le présent document ne mesure pas les performances de décontamination.

Očesna optika - Kontaktne leče in izdelki za vzdrževanje leč - Določanje privzema in sprostitve sredstva za konzerviranje (ISO 11986:2017)

Ta dokument določa splošne postopke za izbiro metod, pripravo vzorcev in
izvajanje preskusov za prevzem in sproščanje zaščitnih sredstev iz kontaktnih leč.
OPOMBA 1: Zaradi očitnih težav s ponovljivostjo pri nanašanju mineralnih in organskih nanosov na kontaktne leče med njihovo obrabo se te metode uporabljajo samo za nove in neuporabljene kontaktne leče.
OPOMBA 2: Zmanjšanje količine zaščitnih sredstev zaradi kontaktne leče v omejenem prostoru škatlice za leče lahko ogrozi učinkovitost razkuževanja. Ta dokument ne obravnava merjenja učinkovitosti razkuževanja.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 172, Optics and photonics, Subcommittee
SC 7, Ophthalmic optics and instruments.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 11986:2010), which has been technically
revised.
The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— the cross references were aligned with the revised editions of ISO 18369-1 and ISO 18369-3;
— the expression of results in the test report has been clarified;
— editorial corrections have been applied.

Introduction
Contact lens care products are a complex mixture of organic and inorganic substances. For reasons
of microbiological safety, contact lens disinfecting solutions, as well as care products in multi-use
containers, contain substances with antimicrobial activity. From many years of experience in contact
lens wear, it is known that irritation and sensitization problems sometimes occur due to these
preservatives being absorbed and released by the matrix of the contact lens. For these reasons, it is
necessary to be able to estimate the extent of preservative uptake and release by contact lenses.
The preservative uptake and release test provides a general method for measuring the uptake of
preservatives in solution by contact lenses and the release of preservatives from contact lenses in an
aqueous medium. The analytical method to be used for quantification of specific preservatives is not
indicated here. Chemical characteristics of the preservative, as well as concentration in the contact lens
care product and degree of uptake by the contact lens, can be taken into consideration in selecting an
appropriate analytical method. Contact lens uptake and release data can be useful in characterizing
the potential for a new or modified contact lens material to produce a toxic or irritating reaction in the
eye from the uptake and binding or release of preservatives from cu
...
