ABSTRACT:
A method for disinfecting a contact lens contacts the lens with a sterilizing composition comprising about 0.0001% to 10.0% by weight peracetic acid for a time period sufficient to disinfect the lens, and then antiseptically removes the peracetic acid using a peracetic acid removing agent to leave the lens and the remaining composition sterile, biocompatible to the human eye, and isotonic to human tears. The peracetic acid removing agent can be a peracetic acid decomposition catalyst or a peracetic acid neutralizing compound.
