Abstract
A system and method for cleaning, disinfecting and storing contact lens in an all-in-one unit is provided. The system employs preservative-free saline solution, a disposable bacteriological filter and a pump to provide a portable and lightweight system. The cleaning and disinfecting steps are completed in a few minutes, after which the system automatically shuts off. The cleaned and disinfected lenses can be stored in the unit overnight without the need for the user to handle the lenses after the system shuts off.
