  • Patent number: 5795343
    Abstract: A device is designed for easy application of an antiseptic, such as peroxide, to an injured area. The device includes a housing having a central cavity in which an absorbent pad, such as a sponge, is permanently affixed. An antiseptic, e.g. peroxide, is also disposed within the cavity and absorbed by the pad. A flexible cover is sealed to the housing to close the cavity and contain the absorbent pad and the antiseptic. The cover is designed for easy removal to expose the pad and its absorbed antiseptic.

  • Patent number: 5732990
    Abstract: A contact lens device is disclosed. The device is designed to facilitate the application of a contact lens, particularly an extended wear type contact lens, onto an eye of a wearer. The device includes an applicator preferably made of a conformable material. The applicator has a contoured surface designed to substantially engage and hold the contact lens while the wearer moves the contact lens into proximity with one of his eyes. The applicator is also sufficiently deformable to permit the contact lens to be pressed into substantial contact with the wearer's eye where the superior adhesion between the corneal surface of the eye and the contact lens removes the lens from the applicator when the applicator is pulled away by the wearer.
