Contact Lens Storage?!?

Question

I have seem to have lost my contact lens storage container. I dont know where it is. But, I need to take my contacts out. What could act as a substitution for the night, until i can get a holder tomorrow?

Answer 1

You could use two plastic cups with a bit of solution in the bottom, or perhaps those egg holders? If you have glasses, you could flip them upside down and fill the little concave part with solution (hooray surface tension) and use that. It might evaporate though...

Answer 2

In some kind of small container with a lid. (one for each contact)

Answer 3

if you're the same vision in both eyes, get a small bowl and put them both in there and put some sort of saran wrap over

if different in each eye -- two bowls. don't forget to cover the bowls though!

Answer 4

You could take two little plastic cups and put one contact in each (remember each side!) and then fill with enough solution to get you through the night.

Answer 5

Find two small containers that are plastic or glass and smooth on the inside. Make certain they are clean and sterilize them by boiling some water, removing it from the heat, then placing the containers in it for about 10 seconds. If the containers don't have covers to them, then use some plastic wrap or aluminum foil.

Answer 6

i was at a friend's house once, and forgot my lense case. i used a little dixie cup and it worked fine for me. anything that is VERY clean and that could possibly be sealed will work perfectly.

Answer 7

you can possibly try a pill box or a plastic cup.

just remember:

don't throw the cup away by accident!

if you choose to try this one, maybe you should label the cup with a marker.

Answer 8

Anything, really. ._. I hate it when that happens. What I did, though, was I cut a bottle into a little piece. Just the bottom. Then put some solution in it, and put my contacts there.

HOWEVER.

If you have different prescriptions for each eye, you probably want to put them separately. :D

Answer 9

Any small tupperware with a tight lid and sufficient lens solution.  Smaller the better.

Answer 10

Put them in a ceramic container with solution and make sure that it is well covered.  My Grandmother tried putting them in a Dixie cup with solution and left it on the counter.  The next morning when she checked it... the cup had soaked up the solution and the contacts were dried.  So make sure that the storage is covered.  Even Styrofoam might work.

Answer 11

you could use a small tupperware container, by squirting some solution in the bottom, putting your contacts in, and closing the lid

but be sure that the contacts are fully submerged and don't tip the container

Answer 12

When I dont have my storage case I put them each in a shot glass, (Disenfect first) Or sometimes a pill case!

Answer 13

You can use anything that is a container tupperware works a cup just make sure you put the cleaning solution in it and get two so you don't mix left and right up. Also make sure there is a lid or put foil over it so nothing get into the solution.
