ABSTRACT:
A container is provided for storing a contact lens in a liquid, the contact lens having a base surface defining a base curve equivalent radius and a front surface. The container includes a base portion and a bowl portion formed integral with the base portion for containing the liquid and the contact lens. The bowl portion includes a lens seating section having an inner surface defined by a radius sized from slightly larger than to equal to the base curve equivalent radius so that the front surface of the contact lens removably adheres to the inner surface. The base curve equivalent radius may be from about 85% to about 100% of the inner surface radius, and the inner surface radius may be about 9.0 mm.
