Anti-bacterial Lens Case

Contact lens wearers now can receive extra protection against potential eye infections through use of a new Lens Case, infused with an antimicrobial agent that helps prevent contamination.

The contact lens case contains silver atoms that have been electrically charged (ions), have shown in clinical trials to help reduce the possibility of outside contamination within the case by 40%.

Lens cases are quite vulnerable to contamination. For example, data tell us that a large percentage of contact lens wearers rinse their lens cases with tap water, which could be a source of contaminants. It's therefore not surprising that lens case contamination occurs with up to 80% of contact lens wearers. The Lens Case is infused with silver ions to kill bacteria and help minimize contamination on the lens case surface. The silver ions are gradually released as the case is exposed to moisture. This slow, sustained release maintains the antimicrobial agent at the surface of the case.

Silver has frequently been used as an antimicrobial agent in oral hygiene, medical devices such as catheters, food packaging, water purification and other products. The antimicrobial Lens Case is gentle, non-toxic and safe.
