Abstract:
The present invention relates to the unexpected discovery of a cross-linked polymer of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate and dipicolylamine-containing monomers that can be used as a therapeutic lens to treat ocular diseases or disorders associated with matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) over-activity and/or over-expression, such as but not limited to corneal melting (or keratolysis).
