A case for storing and cleaning contact lenses, comprising: a container having an open end; a closure for the open end of the container; a receptacle carrier movable from a retracted position within the container to an extended position wherein it projects from the open end of the container; interengageable annular shoulders on the container and the carrier for limiting outward movement of the carrier and for closing the open end of the container to prevent loss of liquid therefrom when the carrier is in its extended position; a spring biasing the carrier toward its extended position; and two lens receptacles pivotable relative to the carrier, when the latter is extended, from aligned retracted positions to extended positions wherein the interiors of the receptacles are accessible for insertion or removal of contact lenses, the receptacles being pivotable about a common axis spaced laterally from and parallel to the central axis of the container. With the foregoing construction, the container is automatically sealed against loss of liquid therefrom when the carrier is extended, whereupon the lenses in the receptacles mounted on the carrier may be washed readily without any loss of liquid from the container.
