Abstract
A contact lens package includes a base member including a cavity dimensioned to accommodate contact lens and a liquid therein. The combination of the cavity, the contact lens, and the liquid cooperate to collimate partially collimated light directed toward a bottom surface of the cavity. The cavity can be sealed by attaching a removable sealing member to the base member around the cavity. Methods of inspecting ophthalmic lenses using the present packages are also described.
