A disinfection system of a contact lens comprising immersing the contact lens in a disinfecting solution containing hydrogen peroxide in a concentration of 1 to 10% and neutralizing the hydrogen peroxide in the disinfecting solution through contact with a metal catalyst, where the disinfecting solution contains an organic carboxylic acid or a salt of the organic carboxylic acid, the organic carboxylic acid having a structure in which a hydroxyl group and a carboxyl group are bonded to one carbon atom; the disinfecting solution is adjusted to have a pH of 6 to 8; and the disinfecting solution after the neutralization is adjusted to have an osmotic pressure of 250 to 350 mOsm.

Contact lens treatment systems and methods for disinfecting contact lenses are described. These systems and methods utilize a coated catalytic disc, which contains a support disc and a manganese oxide present on at least a portion of the support disc. The coated catalytic disc contains 300 μg to 1800 μg of manganese, often in the form of manganese dioxide.
