Abstract

1. Contact lens maintenance kit, containing two solutions, of which one solution is a solution of hydrogen peroxide for cleansing and disinfecting the contact lens, and the other solution is an enzyme-containing neutralisation solution for the removal of residual hydrogen peroxide from the cleansed and disinfected lens, wherein the hydrogen peroxide solution is a from 0.5 to 3.0 % solution with protein- or lipoid-removing additives in the form of neutral electrolytes (NaCl, KCl, LiCl, sulfates, phosphates) and the neutralisation solution contains surface-active wetting agents in the form of soluble cellulose derivatives.
