ABSTRACT:
A contact lens inserter/remover, comprising, a tubular casing having an interior chamber of a cylindrical configuration with a concave lower first end and a planar open second upper end. A fan within the chamber is adapted for rotation about an axis co-extensive with the axis of the casing and an associated motor to rotate the fan in a first direction and a second direction with an associated power source adjacent to the motor. The casing has a reduced diameter cylindrical extension at the lower first end with a plurality of apertures at the concave end for attracting or repelling a contact lens in contact therewith when the motor is energized. The casing also has air flow apertures on the side of the fan remote from the concave end. A cap is provided at the upper end of the casing with screw threads for coupling with the upper end to allow the addition or removal of the power source from the casing.
