Embodiment Construction

Referring now in more specific detail to the drawings, and in particular to FIGS. 1 and 2, there is illustrated a generally rectangular carton 10 which is adapted to receive a plurality of planar arrays of packaging arrangements for the sealed containment of contact lenses, especially disposable hydrophilic contact lenses, as described in more specific detail hereinbelow.

The rectangular carton 10, which is preferably constituted of paperboard, includes flat top and bottom wall panels 12 and 14, and front and rear walls or panels 16 and, respectively, 18 which are adapted to be closed by being folded from a carton blank along suitable fold lines, and opposite ends 20; (only one shown) through an adhesive or glued construction as is known in the carton forming technology. The top wall panel 12 is adapted to be swung upwardly about a rear hinge line, as shown by the phantom illustration, to open the carton 10, and includes side flaps 12a, 12b which may be tucked within the confines of ...

Abstract

A packaging arrangement for the containment of at least one hydrophilic contact lens in a sterile aqueous solution. More specifically, pursuant to the packaging arrangement, a plurality of disposable hydrophilic contact lenses are contained in a specific number of individual packaging arrangements collectively housed in a box-like container or carton so as to provide a specified or essentially measured supply of contact lenses for use by a consumer over a predetermined period of time.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION1. Field of the InventionThe present invention relates to a packaging arrangement for the containment of at least one hydrophilic contact lens in a sterile aqueous solution. More specifically, the invention pertains to a packaging arrangement wherein a plurality of disposable hydrophilic contact lenses are contained in a specific number of individual packaging arrangements collectively housed in a box-like container or carton so as to provide a specified or essentially measured supply of contact lenses for use by a consumer over a predetermined period of time.The packaging of hydrophilic contact lenses in a sterile aqueous solution is well known in the contact lens manufacturing technology. In particular, such packaging arrangements generally consist of so-called blister packages which are employed for the storage and dispensing of the hydrophilic contact lenses by a medical practitioner or to consumer who intends to wear the contact lenses. Generally, suc...
