Abstract

PURPOSE:To securely wash a contact lens in a short time by transmitting ultrasonic wave vibrations to a washing container by a vibrator which is vibrated at a high frequency by an oscillation circuit. CONSTITUTION:The screw part 11 of a cap is mounted on the screw part 12 of the washing container 5 while the contact lens 6 is held at the chuck part 9 of the cap 10, and then the contact lens 6 is held during washing without touching the washing container 5 directly. When the contact lens 6 is washed, washing liquid is poured in the washing container 5 until a body to be washed, i.e. contact lens 6 dipped completely in the liquid, a timer switch 7 is turned to set a time, and a switch is turned on. Consequently, fixed dirt can be removed from the contact lens 6 by ultrasonic wave vibrations.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cleaning device for cleaning contact lenses.

従来の技術 従来、コンタクトレンズの洗浄は、専用の洗浄剤を使用

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Conventionally, contact lenses have been cleaned by hand using a special cleaning agent, or by soaking them in a cleaning solution and rinsing them with water.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, with long-term use, secretions during the night, especially proteins, adhere to the surface of the lens, reducing the performance of the lens. In particular, oxygen-permeable hard contact lenses and soft contact lenses have proteins attached to their permeable pores, which cannot be removed with ordinary cleaning solutions.

To do this, we have to use an enzyme-based protein remover and soak the lens in the solution for 3 to 10 hours to remove the protein and prevent the lens from becoming cloudy. It won't happen. However, this process alone cannot completely remove protein adhesion; some remains, and if this process is repeated for a long time, oxygen permeability will deteriorate. In addition, protein removal agents have a high drug price per treatment, making them expensive in the long run.

In addition, a cleaning device called an ultrasonic cleaner is often used to remove stuck dirt, and it is used to clean glasses and dentures other than contact lenses. However, as shown in Figure 6, the container is large and cannot be used for cleaning small items such as contact lenses.
Also, since the overall space is large, it is inconvenient for use at a travel destination. Another problem with commercially available ultrasonic cleaners is that the energy of the ultrasonic vibrations is too strong, so if there is even a small scratch on the lens, the lens will break from the scratch. was there.

Further, during cleaning, a large amount of expensive cleaning liquid is required to fill the container with cleaning liquid in order to uniformly transmit vibrations to the object to be cleaned. Furthermore, in order to prevent the lens from breaking and the vibrational energy from concentrating on one point, it is desirable to hold the lens in the liquid so that it does not come into contact with the cleaning container, but there is a problem in that this is difficult.
