Abstract
Contact lens cleaning compositions containing a combination of an enzyme and a carboxy vinyl polymer, and a method of cleaning contact lenses with such compositions are described. The compositions are capable of cleaning soiled contact lenses very rapidly and completely due to a favorable interaction between the enzyme component and an abrasive precipitate formed by the carboxy vinyl polymer component when a small amount of the compositions is rubbed on the lenses.
