Oplee™ Travel Contact Lens Case is designed for people who wear both eyeglasses and contact lenses. For most people, vision correction preferences are mainly driven by what they're doing at the time. For example, eyeglasses are more comfortable working long bouts at a computer, whereas contact lenses are the better option for physical activities. So many people carry around all the needed eyecare accessories in case they want to make a change. This can quickly become cumbersome, so many seek out a travel contact lens case that helps to organize these items. These cases typically include a small bottle for contact lens solution, a contact lens case, a mirror, and storage for eyeglasses.



“After a few weeks of using a travel contact lens case, I developed a painful eye infection,” said Oplee founder Ryan Bennett. “After a discussion with my eye care professional, she informed me that transferring contact solution from a large bottle to the small bottle provided in the case was likely the cause of the infection.” Per the FDA, “Do not transfer contact lens solutions into smaller travel-size containers. This can affect the sterility of the solution which can lead to an eye infection.” (Contact Lens Solutions and Products, U.S. FDA)



Ryan continued, “After this unfortunate experience, I tried to find a travel contact lens case that worked with standard travel-sized solution bottles produced by most manufacturers of contact solution. If I could find such a case, this would eliminate the need to transfer solution between bottles. After an extensive search, it became clear that no such case existed and thus began the design process of Oplee.”



Oplee™ Travel Contact Lens Case benefits include:

-Only case on the market designed to work with standard travel-sized (2 fl oz) contact solution bottles. Eliminating the dangerous practice of transferring contact solution between bottles.

-Works with the user’s eyeglass case, ensuring all of the needed eye care accessories are together in one place.

-Built-in mirror makes it easy to transition from wearing contact lenses to eyeglasses or vice versa while on the go.
