    Keywords : nanoparticles; ophthalmic drug delivery; chitosan; polyacrylic acid; FITC;

    Abstract : The aim of this study was to develop nanoparticle loaded hydrogel based contact lenses that could be used for ocular drug delivery. Two potential contact lens platforms for controlled ophthalmic drug delivery was thus developed by incorporating chitosan-poly(acrylic acid) nanoparticles into polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogels and nanoparticles together with cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) in PVA.
