A method for labeling packages containing contact lenses involves applying to a package that contains a contact lens a machine-readable code identifying characteristics of the contact lens in the package, and later applying to the package printed language information generated from the machine readable code. The printed language information can be applied to the package at a site and/or time remote from the packaging and sterilization operations while ensuring product integrity.

Method for labeling packages

A disposable contact lens package includes a plurality of legs extending from the periphery thereof which may be placed in releasable, meshing engagement with the legs of a second identical package placed in stacked relation to the first package, the two stacked packages forming a compact unit thereby facilitating shipping, storage, and subsequent handling by the consumer.
