The next time you need to take a prescription drug, taking it might be as easy as putting on a contact lens, thanks to a new ...

Since the pre-hydrogel solution produced by the 3D printer has a very low viscosity, it cannot be printed onto a standard substrate; otherwise, it will result in a puddle rather than a 3D structure.

Most contact lenses today are made of soft polymers like hydrogels — water-loving materials that retain moisture. So, ...

The global hydrogel face mask market is experiencing significant growth, with a projected increase from USD 116.36 million in ...

University of Waterloo researchers developed 3D-printed hydrogel-loaded contact lenses that deliver medication continuously while worn. The silicone-based hydrogel is durable, flexible and can ...

US researchers have created a new 3D bio-printing technique called High-throughput Integrated Tissue Fabrication System for ...
