A method of cleaning and disinfecting a contact lens comprising immersing a contact lens in a treating solution, applying a direct current to the treating solution with repeatedly reversing a positive electrode and a negative electrode of a pair of electrodes plural times to generate peroxide and raise the temperature of the treating solution so that the interval of time before reversing is different from or equal to the interval of time after reversing to 50.degree. to 100.degree. C., and bringing the contact lens into direct contact with bubbles generated on the electrodes. Since this method is excellent in electrical safety and cleaning and disinfecting effects, contact lenses can be easily cleaned and disinfected.
