The present invention provides a material for intraocular lens which has improved hydrolysis resistance. The material for intraocular lens according to the present invention is obtained by polymerizing a monomer composition comprising: a base monomer, a hydrophilic monomer, and a cross-likable monomer, wherein the base monomer comprises an aromatic ring-containing acrylate monomer and an alkoxyalkyl methacrylate monomer having an alkoxyalkyl group having four or less carbon atoms. A blending ratio on a molar basis of the methacrylate monomer with respect to the acrylate monomer in all the monomer components contained in the monomer composition is 0.25 to 1.00.

Disclosed are high refractive index, hydrophobic, acrylic materials. These materials have both high refractive index and a high Abbe number. This combination means the materials have a low refractive index dispersion and thus are especially suitable for use as intraocular lens materials. The materials are also suitable for use in other implantable ophthalmic devices, such as keratoprostheses, corneal rings, corneal implants, and corneal inlays.

A small diameter vascular prosthesis includes an outer textile graft, an intermediate self-supporting coil or stent and an inner microporous layer. The outer textile graft allows for tissue ingrowth. The inner microporous layer provides blood impermeability without preclotting the prosthesis. The coil or stent provides kink resistance and resistance again collapsing of the outer textile graft and the inner microporous layer.
