Zusammenfassung:	A contact lens case is provided which includes a canister (14) open at its upper end for receiving lens washing fluid and a cap (12) adapted to be secured to and seal the canister (14). The cap (12) includes a securing ring (22) adapted to engage the canister (14) so as to secure the cap (12) to the canister (14). The cap (12) further includes a lens retaining portion (25) having at least two lens receptacles (30) pivotably mounted on a shoulder (34). A leaf spring (40) is provided in the shoulder (34) for urging the lens receptacles (30) apart. A turning knob (20) is provided on the cap (12) and is connected to a planetary gear mechanism (24) for causing the lens retaining portion (25) to rotate in the canister (14) as the turning knob (20) is rotated. Downwardly extending finger means (36) are provided on each lens receptacle (30) which are adapted to engage an elliptically shaped track (45) at the base of the inner surface of the canister to cause the receptacles to be simultaneously oscillated toward and away from the axis of rotation of the retaining portion (25) as the receptacle portion is rotated about the circumference of the canister (14).
