<p>A magazine for keeping a number of contact lenses (2) kept in each their fluid-filled chamber (3). Each chamber (3) has a supporting wall (5) with a concave face (4) fitting the convex side of the contact lens (2). The supporting walls (5) are placed in a row after each other along the axis of the concave faces (4), and each supporting wall (5) is detachably separating two consecutive chambers (3). The magazine contains several contact lenses (2) at a time and therefore constitutes an inexpensive and expedient package. When a contact lens is to be applied in an eye, the magazine is placed with the skirts pointing downwards. The lowest support (5) is then removed from the rest of the magazine with a finger stuck into the skirt (8) of the supporting wall (5). Due to the moisture present, the contact lens (2) is adhering to the supporting wall (5) which together with its skirt is now transformed into an effective applicator (5, 8) for cleanly and sterilely applying a contact lens in an eye.</p> |
