APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR DISINFECTING CONTACT LENSES

摘要

A system and method for disinfecting contact lenses produces ozone from the water in which the contact lenses are submerged, thus avoiding the need to supply ozone from an external source. Ozone is created by an electrolytic cell including a diamond electrode, which is submerged in the water with the contact lenses to be disinfected. The diamond electrode may include a number of fingers, and may be fabricated from a diamond blank.
