The contact lens made of hydrophilic gels contains substantially 20 to 65 percent by weight of a swelling agent in the equilibrium swollen state. An example of the swelling agent can be physiological saline, water, or buffer with pH 6.5 to 7.5. The lens contains inhibitors of endoproteases and exopr

The contact lens made of hydrophilic gels contains substantially 20 to 65 percent by weight of a swelling agent in the equilibrium swollen state. An example of the swelling agent can be physiological saline, water, or buffer with pH 6.5 to 7.5. The lens contains inhibitors of endoproteases and exoproteases such as aprotinin, elastatinal, and soybean. The lens may also include some type of steroidal and/or nonsteroidal antiphlogistics. The lens may also contain antibiotics. The contact lens is used for longer term wearing and may also be used for the treatment of various lesions of the anterior eye segment.
