description One of the most important field of interest in respect to hydrogel materials is their capability to water storage. The problem mentioned above plays an important role regarding to diffusion of fluid media containing nanoparticles, what is very useful in biomedical applications, such as artificial polymeric implants, drug delivery systems or tissue engineering. In presented work, dehydration process in hydrogels used in ophthalmology as intraocular lenses was observed. Before measurements studied materials were immersed in deionized water and saline solution to obtain equilibrium swelling state. Studies of the dehydration process were carried out by use of gravimetric analysis, Fourier-Transform Infrared and Positron Annihilation Lifetime Spectroscopy. Obtained results revealed changes in hydrogen bonding structure and free volume holes induced by saline solution ingredients.
