Contact Lens Cases

Contact lens cases you'll actually want to carry

A lens case doesn't have to be a boring white plastic thing that lives at the back of the bathroom cupboard. We've ended up with quite a collection of cute ones over the years, and a nice case really does make you more likely to look after your lenses properly. You'll find everything from a simple £1.99 case to sparkly kits with a built in mirror.

Every case keeps your left and right lenses apart, which matters even more with coloured lenses, as a few of our designs are odd eye pairs.

Contact lens case and kit sets

Our most popular style is the Contact Lens Case and Kit. It's a small pot with a mirror in the lid, a mini case, a little solution bottle, tweezers and an applicator inside. It's everything you need in your handbag for a night out or a weekend away. The plain versions come in Yellow, Black, Blue, Green, Turquoise, Pink, Purple and White for £3.99. The baby pink one is the one people pick most.

For something a bit shinier, the Metallic kits come in Gold, Black, Rose Gold, Silver, Turquoise and Pink for £4.99. If you like a bit of sparkle, the Diamond Green, Diamond Pink and Diamond Blue kits are about 7.5 x 7.5cm with a mirror, mini case, applicator and tweezers, at £5.49. The Black Constellation kit is a little bigger, about 8 x 8 x 3cm, for £5.99.

Cute fruit and animal lens cases

These are the ones that make us smile. The Strawberry, Watermelon, Pineapple and Peach cases are for fruit fans, and the Bear, Frog, Elephant, Chick, Sheep, Octopus and Tiger kits are for everyone else. They're £3.49 each with a mini case, tweezers and applicator. The Cactus kit is a bargain at £1.99, and the Disney Winnie the Pooh Contact Lens Case has Pooh and Tigger on the lid for £2.99.

Simple spare cases

If you just need a plain case to keep in a drawer or at work, the Contact Lens Case comes in 6 colours for £1.99. There's also a basic Contact Lens Case and Kit in yellow, green, pink or blue for £2.99, with tweezers and an applicator included. Having a spare means you're never stuck if you leave your main one at a mate's house.

How to keep your contact lens case clean

• Empty the old solution every time and refill with fresh solution. Never top up.
• Rinse the case with solution, not tap water, then leave it open to air dry upside down.
• Replace your case every few months, or straight away if it's cracked or looks grubby.
• Use the tweezers to lift lenses out of the case, never to touch your eye.

Picking the right one

If you wear lenses for cosplay or conventions, a kit with a mirror is really handy, as venue toilets are rarely well lit. For a holiday, pick one with a solution bottle so you don't need to pack a big bottle. And if you've got a few pairs of coloured contacts, a different case for each pair helps you remember which is which. Order before 2pm on a working day and your case goes out the same day.
