ABSTRACT:
A polishing tool for contact lenses and an associated method is provided. The polishing tool is comprised of a base, an exteriorly convex resilient polishing head, and a polishing cloth. The polishing head is made of a suitable resilient material, said material allowing the polishing head to better conform to the interior portion of the contact lens. The method of the present invention involves connecting the polishing tool to a rotatable shaft and exposing the rotating polishing head to the interior of the contact lens. The polishing head can be adapted, in another embodiment, to polish the edges and the outside and peripheral bevels of a contact lens.
