Waldman, Fred;

Contact lens holder

A dome shaped contact lens holder is provided with indentations on its sides to allow finger tip contact with the underside of the rim of the contact lens resting on the crown of the dome. A strap capable of encompassing the lens and dome is attached on one end of the rear of the dome. At its other end, the underside of the strap is provided with a tip which plugs into a receiver located under the dome. The holder is made of a soft plastic material and comprises a single unit which is attached to the underside of the cap used to close the case containing the soaking solution in which the contact lens is stored.

Thus, having disclosed my invention, I claim:

1. A contact lens holder comprising a stem terminating on one end in means for attaching the stem to the underside of a cap to a case for storing contact lens soaking solution and terminating on the other end in a dome, free of any surrounding sidewall, said dome having one or more cut out sections in its sides for exposing the underside rim of a contact lens positioned on said dome, and having a hinged strap, having a width less than the width of the dome, said strap being further provided with a connecting means for detachably connecting with a receiver means positioned on the side of the dome opposite the side to which the hinged strap is attached.

2. The contact lens holder of claim 1 wherein the means for attaching the stem to the underside of the cap is a gasket for the cap.

3. The contact lens holder of claim 1 wherein the strap is further provided with a tip which engages with a hole in the receiver.

4. The contact lens holder of claim 1 wherein the stem, dome, strap, receiver and means for attaching the stem to the underside of the cap are all made as a single unit of an elastomeric material.

5. The contact lens holder of claim 1 wherein the means for attaching the stem to the underside of the cap is a gasket for the cap.

6. The contact lens holder of claim 1 wherein the stem, dome, strap, receiver and means for attaching the stem to the underside of the cap are all made as a single unit of an elastomeric material.
