Abstract
A copolymer comprising, PA0 (a) a hydrophilic siloxanylalkyl ester having a structure in which a siloxane part (1) having a terminal acryloyl or methacryloyl group and a siloxane part (2) having a terminal hydrophilic group are bonded through an alkylene chain with each other, PA0 (b) a hydrophilic monomer, and PA0 (c) a hydrophobic monomer is suitable for use in the production of a soft contact lens having a high oxygen permeability and an excellent affinity for the eye tissue which can be worn continuously for a long period of time.
