After a dyeing liquid is coated on them, ultraviolet rays are irradiated to them. It is desirable that the soft contact lens which is immersed preliminarily in 0.9% physiological salt solution and becomes the saturated swell state is used. In respect to the silk screen, it is desirable that a silk screen which is provided with a pattern corresponding to required characters, symbols or the like and is produced with materials such as nylon and Tetron is used; and pertinent characters, symbols or the like are provided on the part of the silk screen, which is brought into contact with the lens, in accordance with the number of treatable lenses, thereby dyeing a large quantity of lenses at a time. |
