CHARGING CASE FOR ELECTRONIC CONTACT LENS

A contact lens charging case comprises a container sized and shaped to receive an electronic contact lens (“eCL”) and charging coil to couple to a coil of the eCL. In some embodiments, the charging coil comprises a diameter larger than a diameter of the coil of the eCL, so as to decrease sensitivity of the location and orientation of the eCL in the container and improve coupling between the coils. In some embodiments, the charging coil is dimensioned so as to extend at least partially around the container that receives the eCL.

Contact Lens Cleaning Systems
20170348738 · 2017-12-07 ·

A cleaning system configured to use a hydrogen peroxide solution to clean contact lenses. The cleaning system includes a reservoir to hold the cleaning solution and a complex base coupled to the reservoir to insure a hermetically closed reservoir environment. The complex base is separated into at least a first and a second segment. A lens holder assembly holds the lenses within the solution and is coupled to the complex base in the first segment. A motor is located in the second segment of the complex base to selectively introduce a catalyst to the cleaning solution. The cleaning system has additional features that permit the system to allow for the storage of the contact lenses by converting a neutralized cleaning solution into a storage solution to prevent recontamination.

SMART AUTOMATED CONTACT LENS CLEANSING DEVICE
20220350176 · 2022-11-03 ·

A cleansing device that forces fresh, unused contact lens solution in a manner that jets the front and back surfaces of an item with sufficient force to prevent air bubbles from clinging to surface areas of the item. Further, the cleansing device submerges the item in the fresh, unused contact cleansing solution for a controlled threshold cleansing time to ensure proper removal of contaminate build-ups on the item. Further still, according to inventive concepts, devices are automatically cleansed and dried to ensure sterility. As such, the cleansing device is ready for another cleansing cycle prior to the user's next scheduled cleansing cycle.

Contact Lens Dispenser

Contact lens dispensers are provided including a pens dispenser having an interior and a dispensing end. A delivery screw is provided in the interior of the tubular housing. The delivery screw has a thread pitch and a plurality of contact lenses, one contact lens per pitch. Upon actuation of an actuator, each contact lens moves along the thread by a distance of one pitch and a single contact lens is dispensed from the dispensing end of the tubular housing. A case and disposable foil contact lens cartridge are also provided as a re a case and disposable contact lens foil spool, wherein actuation of push-buttons dispense contact lenses ready for immediate application onto an eye.

20230296924 · 2023-09-21 · ·

A contact lens cleaner includes a power supply base (2), a cleaning base (1), and a cleaning mechanism (3). The cleaning base (1) is detachably connected with the power supply base (2). At least one cleaning recess (103) is provided in the cleaning base (1). The cleaning mechanism (3) includes a power supply unit (302) disposed in the power supply base (2) and a plurality of electrodes (301) extending into the cleaning recesses (103) through a bottom of the cleaning recess (103) and electrically connected with the power supply unit (302). The power supply unit (302) includes a circuit board (303), a power supply (304) and a plurality of conductive sheets (306) disposed on the circuit board (303). A plurality of electrode connectors (305) are disposed through a cleaning base mounting groove (201) at the top of the power supply base (2) in a sealed manner. One end of each of the electrode connectors (305) electrically connected with one of the electrodes (301) is elastically retractable, and the other end of each of the electrode connectors (305) electrically connected with one of the conductive sheets (306) is not elastically retractable. The contact lens cleaner can effectively prevent liquid leakage, is convenient to carry, and is easy to use.

CONTACT LENS CLEANER, AND PROTEIN REMOVAL AND STERILIZATION METHOD BY MEANS OF ELECTROPHORESIS DISSOCIATION
20230314845 · 2023-10-05 · ·

A contact lens cleaner and a method for protein removal and sterilization by electrophoresis dissociation are disclosed. The contact lens cleaner comprises a lens cleaning tank (10), two electrophoresis dissociation probes (20) are arranged in the lens cleaning tank (10) opposite each other, and the electrophoresis dissociation probes (20) are electrically connected to a circuit power supply. The lens cleaning tank (10) is filled with an electrolyte solution; a lens to be cleaned is placed in the lens cleaning tank (10); and a switch is turned on, and the two electrophoresis dissociation probes (20) in the lens cleaning tank (10) form an anode and a cathode. There are lacrimal proteins on the surface of the lens to be cleaned, the lacrimal proteins are charged in the solution, and the charged lacrimal proteins move to the electrode opposite to the electrical property thereof in the cleaning tank (10) according to the phenomenon of electrophoresis.
