ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for cleaning soft contact lenses by the application of an electrical field and comprising a base which is made of non-conducting material for holding a lens, a fluid capable of transmitting the electrical charge, means for containing the electrical charge transmitting fluid, means for providing a DC charge, means for creating separate electrical poles, and means composed of a substance which when immersed with the electrical charge transmitting fluid is capable of transmitting the electrical charge to at least one lens for the purpose of cleaning the lens.
