| abstract |
A contact lens colored with a poly(meth)acrylate-combined metallophthalocyanine compound represented by the following formula (I): ##STR1## wherein M represents a metal atom to which phthalocyanine can coordinate, R represents a halogen atom, m is an integer of 0 to 4, R 1 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, and A represents a hydrogen atom, a C 1-12 alkyl group, a hydroxyC 1-12 alkyl group or a glycerol group. The colored contact lens has sufficiently high fastness, so that the lens undergoes neither color change nor color fading even when it is sterilized by boiling. |
