METHOD FOR DISINFECTING AND CLEANING CONTACT LENSES

摘要

A method for disinfecting and cleaning contact lenses is disclosed wherein the lenses are first treated with a peroxide solution to effect disinfection and then are subsequently treated with a catalyst which decomposes the peroxide in a rapid, turbulent manner so as to facilitate removal of surface contamination. The catalyst is preferably kettles, which when used as an aqueous solution is particularly effective in increasing the speed and thoroughness of peroxide removal from the lenses.
