Summary:The present invention pertains to moldings, especially biomedical moldings such as ophthalmic moldings, comprising certain radiation sensitive groups on their surface and to a process for attaching said moldings to living tissue, in particular to the eye as a corneal prosthesis. The present invention is concerned with a biomedical molding comprising a non-biodegradable biocompatible organic polymer comprising attached to its surface radicals of formula wherein the variables are as defined in the claims. The biomedical moldings of the invention are radiation sensitive and may be used, for example, as intraocular lens in ophthalmic surgery.
