Abstract
Contact lenses are a commonly used medical device that many users find difficult to insert and remove from the eyes. A contact lens insertion and removal apparatus of the subject invention utilizes a lens manipulator that can be controlled by a user to insert a contact lens into the eye or remove it from the eye. Further embodiments include a display system that provides a user with dual images of the lens manipulator such that the user sees an optical illusion of the lens manipulator from a side view. This provides the user with an increased sense of control and safety when inserting or removing contact lenses. Additional embodiments can include a hands-free contact lens cleaning and storage system.
