Protein found on
contact lenses
All soft contact lenses have
protein sticking to their sur-
faces as a result of normal wear,
according to a study in the Arch-
ives of Ophthalmology.
After studying old, worn con-
tact lenses where protein depos-
its were found, the reseachers
compared them with new ones. "New
never-worn soft contact lenses
did not stain for any of the pro-
teins examined in this study,"
thereseachers said.
