Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an article comprising at least two stackable containers each of which may contain an ophthalmic device.
  • the present invention relates to a stackable container for use in an article as described.
  • any lens which is to be placed on the eye must be substantially free of bacterial contamination.
  • the cost of packaging is a considerable proportion of the cost of producing and providing a user with a lens. In order to make daily disposable lenses attractive to consumers it is important to minimize the cost of the lenses.
  • blister packaging has a number of disadvantages. Specifically, it is very bulky - a small number of lenses may only be contained in a manageable sized pack.
  • blister packaging is produced in strips and then packaged as several strips in a box.
  • individual lenses may not be dispensed without destroying the overall package of the box or without cutting the strip.
  • Cutting the strip risks damaging the blister pack and causing bacterial contamination.
  • blister packaging can be difficult to open in a controlled manner. On peeling the seal of the pack, the lens or the fluid in which it is emersed may be thrown from the pack. Furthermore, practitioners are extremely reluctant to sell low numbers of lenses from such a pack because the remainder of the pack is then rendered unsaleable.
  • the present invention seeks to overcome the problems associated with packaging with blister packs, in particular the packaging of contact lenses.
  • an article comprising at least two stackable containers, each stackable container capable of holding an ophthalmic device, each stackable container comprising a container portion for receiving an ophthalmic device; a first section having engagement means; a second section having engagement means; wherein the first section of one of the stackable containers is capable of operably engaging the second section of another or the other stackable container so that the stackable containers may be releasably joined by means of their respective first and second sections.
  • a container for use in an article as described above wherein the container comprises a container portion for receiving an ophthalmic device; a first section having engagement means; and a second section having engagement means.
  • the present invention is advantageous as it overcomes the afore-mentioned problems associated with the prior art.
  • the article provides densely packed storage for the ophthalmic devices contained therein.
  • one or more containers may be removed and dispensed.
  • This second feature is very advantageous in that when containing, for example, contact lenses it allows for a dispensing practitioner to dispense a low quantity of lenses.
  • a practitioner may dispense a few or even a single lens or pair of lenses for a trial use e.g. to a new user or to a user considering switching to a new type or brand of lens.
  • the practitioner may wish to dispense a low number of lenses for a specific use e.g. a tinted lens on a sunny day. This is in contrast with the packaging of the prior art.
  • the ophthalmic device is a contact lens.
  • the second section of the container is distanced from the first section.
  • the first section of the container is at the top of the container.
  • the second section of the container is at the bottom of the container.
  • the first and/ or second section(s) of the container(s) is/are provided with protrusions or nipples. These allow for an interference fit between at least two stackable containers.
  • Alternative preferred embodiments means are provided to allow for a twist fit or a snug fit between at least two stackable containers.
  • the first and second sections are provided such that a snug fit is obtained between at least two stackable containers.
  • the wall of the container provides a shoulder. This shoulder may then engage with inner surface of the wall of a similar container so as to provide a releasable join between the two containers.
  • the stackable container is substantially cylindrical. This has the advantage that the containers may be stacked without one having to arrange their orientation before releasable joining.
  • the wall of the container extends across at least one end face thereof to form the container portion for receiving an ophthalmic device.
  • the container portion for receiving the ophthalmic device is concave.
  • the container comprises at least one ridge. If the container is substantially cylindrical this ridge may be annular. The provision of such a ridge increases the rigidity of the container.
  • the container may be formed from any suitable material. Such materials are well known in the packaging industry.
  • the container is formed from polycarbonate, poly sulf one or polypropylene.
  • the container is formed from polypropylene. This material is easy to handle, is readily available and is cheap.
  • the material should be chosen such that it can withstand the conditions to which the container will be subjected. For example, if the container is to be sterilized by heat sterilization the material should be chosen to withstand the temperature to which it is to be subjected. Preferably the material should withstand temperatures of greater than about 80°C, more preferably greater than about 100°C, more preferably greater than about 120°C.
  • the container is formed by injection moulding.
  • the container portion of the container is sealed. More preferably, the container portion is sealed with metal foil or a metal foil/polymer laminate or a polymer.
  • each of the containers of the article of the present invention includes such a cover.
  • the cover is formed from a polymer, a metal foil or a laminate thereof.
  • the stackable container may contain two contact lenses, one for each eye of the user.
  • the container may have marking indicating which eye the lens which it contains is to be used for. This is particularly useful when the user has eyes that require a different degree of correction relative to each other.
  • the container is provided with an indentation which allows an object e.g. a fingernail to be inserted between the container and any container to which it may be releasably joined. This allows for the containers to be readily separated.
  • an object e.g. a fingernail
  • the article according to the present invention comprises two or more stackable containers in a stacked arrangement.
  • the article of the present invention comprises at least 5, preferably at least 15, more preferably at least 30 in a stack.
  • a first section of one stackable container operably engages a second section of an adjacent stackable container.
  • an article in accordance with the present invention is "shrink-wrapped" - the procedure for achieving this wrapping is well known in the art.
  • a perforation in the wrapping is provided to assist in the separation of the containers.
  • the increment may be every 30, 24, 20, 14, 10, 7, 5, 2 or 1 containers or even combinations thereof.
  • a container may be capable of allowing inspection, particularly automated inspection, of an ophthalmic device contained therein.
  • the container portion is transparent to visible light.
  • any cover on the container is transparent to visible light. More preferably, both the container portion and any cover are transparent to visible light.
  • the present invention may alternatively be defined as an article comprising at least two stackable containers, wherein each container comprises a cavity suitable for receiving an ophthalmic device and a surface for resistive but removable engagement with at least one other container.
  • a further embodiment of the present invention may alternatively be defined as a stackable container comprising a cavity suitable for receiving an ophthalmic device; a surface for resistive but removable engagement, in use, with a similar container.
  • a further embodiment of the present invention may alternatively be defined as a stackable contact lens container comprising a cavity containing an ophthalmic device and a surface for resistive but removable engagement, in use, with a similar container.
