Zusammenfassung:A tray assembly for holding small devices such as polymeric ophthalmic lenses includes a mesh insert having a plurality of wells for containing individual lenses. The assembly may also include a support tray having a perimeter substantially conforming in shape to the outer edge of the mesh insert. Contact is maintained between the support tray and the mesh insert to confine the lenses within the assembly. A stack assembly includes a plurality of multiwell circular mesh trays and corresponding mesh tray covers stacked and secured on a center shaft and provides substantially enhanced efficiency and productivity in processes such as extraction or hydration. Additionally, portions of the mesh insert and support tray may be used with such processes such as lens coating and surface treatment.
