Abstract:
A contact lens package (100) includes a container, a contact lens (4, 200), and an internal member (190) configured facilitate a restoration of the contact lens (4, 200) to a desired shape when the package (100) is opened by the user.
Abstract:
A contact lens container can include a body. The body can include a floor, at least one wall connected to the floor, a cavity defined, at least in part, by the floor and the at least one wall, and a sensor oriented to take a measurement of a contact lens solution within the cavity when the cavity is at least partially filled with a contact lens solution.
Abstract:
Generating a contact lens recommendation can include analyzing a characteristic of at least one biomarker from a contact lens and comparing the characteristic with a database that correlates the characteristic with a contact lens recommendation.

Abstract:
The present invention provides a contact lens package in which the overall internal depth of the package is less than the natural sagittal depth of the contact lens. Different single-use contact lens package shapes and configurations may be used. In some embodiments, a spring disc is included in the packages to help present the contact lens to the user when the package is opened. The contact lens packages may be adhered or clipped to a card or other carrier sheet, and may be housed in a number of different secondary packages.
Abstract:
A method of transferring a contact lens (310) from a first location to a primary package (330) includes transferring the contact lens (310) with an intermediate transfer member (300) to the primary package (330), wherein the transfer member (300) is sealed in the primary package (330) with the contact lens (310). Additionally, according to another of many exemplary embodiments, a system for transferring a contact lens (310) to a primary package (330) includes a contact lens (310) and a transfer member (300) associated with the contact lens (310), wherein an automated lens transfer device (258) is configured to couple the contact lens (310) and the lens transfer member (300).
Abstract:
A contact lens package (100) includes a substrate (110), wherein the substrate (110) includes a color component configured to provide a contamination detecting contrast to the substrate (110). Additionally, the color component provides a psychological message of cleanliness so as to reinforce compliance with good hygiene practices, or to provide a unique selling point for the finished product.
Abstract:
A contact lens package that is reusable as a case to store a contact lens between uses includes a bottom member having a well with an inside generally concave shape, and a wall rising above the well and ending in a top rim defining an opening; a temporary seal comprising a moisture-proof film sealed across the top rim to seal the opening, thus defining a volume within the package, the volume containing a contact lens and contact lens fluid; and a cap secured to the bottom member covering the temporary seal, the cap being removable to give access to the temporary seal and replaceable on the bottom member thereafter to provide storage of the contact lens between uses thereof. The contact lens package and storage case can be used as part of a system having a generally flat base member with two receptacles and indicia identifying one of the receptacles as being for a left eye contact lens package and the other of the receptacles as being for a right eye contact lens package; and a plurality of contact lens packages each comprising: a bottom member configured to be received by one of said receptacles and held securely onto the base; a cap secured to the bottom member to enclose a volume; and a contact lens and contact lens fluid within the volume; wherein the plurality of contact lens packages include a generally equal plural number of packages containing a contact lens to be used in the left eye of a contact lens wearer and packages containing a contact lens to be used in the right eye of a contact lens wearer.
Abstract:
A system for collecting and utilizing health data can include collecting data relative to a patient's health and aggregating the data with other sources of data to define a database. The patient data can be collected using an electronic device, such as a smart contact lens or smart contact lens container. The data within the database can be manipulated, organized, or otherwise processed to determine trends, relationships, and other characteristics of the database. The characteristics of the database can be correlated to predict a health condition of the patient, generate a healthcare recommendation, or a combination thereof.
