Abstract

A package contains a number of contact lenses sealed within 'blisters' (110) arrayed in two dimensions on a common supporting sheet (100). The form and spacing of the blisters and the sheet is such as to permit folding of the sheet between adjacent rows of blisters to form at least a right angle, with the blisters on the inside of said angle. Folding the sheet of lenses in such a way allows a foil of lenses to be neatly fitted into a square or rectangular tubular box (600) in a reasonable space-efficient manner, while permitting many different prescriptions to be displayed side by side in a reasonable space. Printing (614) on the foil itself can be viewed on a narrow face of the pack, and printing can optionally be viewed on all faces of the pack.
