Kontaktlinsesaker, which translates to "contact lens cases" in English, are small, specialized containers designed for the storage and cleaning of contact lenses. They are essential for maintaining the hygiene and safety of reusable contact lenses. Typically, a contact lens case consists of two separate compartments, each designed to hold one lens. These compartments are usually marked with "L" and "R" for left and right eyes, respectively, to prevent mixing.

The material used for contact lens cases is generally a durable, non-reactive plastic, such as polypropylene or polyethylene. This material is chosen to be resistant to damage from cleaning solutions and to prevent any leaching of chemicals into the lens or the solution. The lids of the compartments are designed to seal tightly, preventing the cleaning solution from evaporating and protecting the lenses from dust and contaminants.

Proper use of a contact lens case is crucial for preventing eye infections. After removing lenses, they should be rinsed thoroughly and placed in the case filled with fresh contact lens solution. The case itself should be cleaned regularly by rinsing it with solution and allowing it to air dry. It is also recommended to replace contact lens cases every three months, or as advised by an eye care professional, as they can harbor bacteria over time. Some advanced contact lens cases also include built-in disinfecting mechanisms or are designed for use with specific types of multipurpose solutions.
