The disclosure provides drug delivery devices and methods of making and using the drug delivery devices. The devices include single and multi-layer polymer films made by a breath figure technique having therapeutic agents associated therewith. For example, the devices may be a dual layer polymer film wherein the first layer includes a therapeutic agent incorporated into it by spin coating the first agent with a polymer solution and the second agent is incorporated into the second layer by loading the agent into pores of the second layer after it is spin coated onto the first layer. In some cases one layer provides a burst release and the second layer provides a slow release drug delivery profile. The devices may take on the form of a surgical mesh with a slow release therapeutic drug.

Disclosed is a cosmetic-product packaging, wherein the cosmetic-product packaging is manufactured to be an elongate packaging with a plurality of planar side panels, a first end panel and a second end panel; the second end panel is implemented as a lid that is pivotally attached to at least a first planar side panel of the plurality of planar side panels, wherein the lid includes a distal hand-digit-slidable flap panel that is tuckable into a retaining slot formed on at least a second planar side panel of the plurality of planar side panels; and the elongate packaging surrounds an internal region thereof for accommodating one or more cosmetic products that are user-accessible when the distal hand-digit-slidable flap panel is hand-digit-slid out of the retaining slot to pivot the lid into an open state.

To provide a component-temporarily holding member and a component mounting jig that do not require removal of a component installation jig after a foamed resin molding is demolded. In a component-temporarily holding member 3 having a temporary holding part 2 for temporarily holding a component 5 having a locking part 6 lockable to another member when mounting the component 5 by locking the locking part 6 in a component mounting position 8 of a forming die 4 for a foamed resin molding, the holding force of the temporary holding part 2 is less than the force with which the locking part 6 is locked in the component mounting position 8.

A lens comprises an internal cavity structure formed by dissolution of a soluble insert material. The internal soluble material may dissolve through a body of a lens such as a contact lens in order to form the cavity within the contact lens. The cavity within the lens can be shaped in many ways, and corresponds to the shape of the dissolved material, such that many internal cavity shapes can be readily fabricated within the contact lens. The insert can be placed in a mold with a pre-polymer material, and the pre-polymer material cured with the insert placed in the mold to form the lens body. The polymerized polymer may comprise a low expansion polymer in order to inhibit expansion of the lens when hydrated. The polymer may comprise a hydrogel when hydrated. The soft contact lens material comprises a sufficient amount of cross-linking to provide structure to the lens and shape the cavity.
