The paper shows it possible to use the method of total internal reflection-fluorescence for study of the kinetics of protein adsorption onto the surface of intraocular lenses (IOL) made from optically transparent hydrophobic polymers and hydrogels. The nature of the materials (polymethylmethacrylate, silicone, p-HEMA, p-HEMA-collagen copolymer) used for IOL on the adsorption and desorption of human serum albumin was studied.
