Tinker Turtle brand 3D-printed scleral lens products are brilliant! I've been really looking forward to stocking these. It's so fun to see things specifically designed for scleral lens users, and as an added bonus, these are made by Alec who is relatively local to us (Puget Sound area).
The Everyday Carrying Case is an excellent emergency kit for lens removal or a quick remove-rinse-reinsert on the go. It's designed specifically for our most common items - insertion and removal plungers, a lens case, and individual saline vials. It will fit two each of either Nutrifill or Scleralfil (including the new oval-shaped Scleralfil). If you are using smaller vials you can probably fit more.
Two fun extra features are a little mirror in the lid, and also an insertion plunger-sized hole that will allow you to use the case itself as an insertion stand on the go. All very well thought out.
This is not a pocket-sized item unless we're talking about a roomy coat pocket. But it's small enough to not take up too much space, and noticeable enough not to lose easily.
Two important cautions:

  1. Never store your scleral lenses in preservative-free saline! This case does not include space for any solution suitable for lens storage. If you have to remove a lens in an emergency and leave it in the case, make sure to run it through a disinfection cycle with an approved solution before the next time you use it.
  2. Do not leave this case in your car, tempting though that may be. Cars are subject to temperature extremes that may make the saline unusable for re-insertion. Also, the plastic of the carrying case can start deforming slightly (scroll down for details).

Designed by a scleral lens wearer, these robust cases are your alternative to flimsy zip-lock bags and cheap plastic pouches. They are designed with dedicated spaces for tools, your contact lens case, saline solutions, and even hand sanitizing wipes – ensuring you have everything you need, neatly organized, wherever your lenses take you.

The case comes with inserts that allow you to customize the case to fit most hard contact lens cases.

Included with the case:

  • 1 DMV Ultra removal tool
  • 1 DMV Scleral Cup tool
  • 1 Hard contact lens case
  • Purell wipe
  • Small circular attached mirror

Temperature

Please note that in extremely high temperatures (such as leaving the case in a car in direct sun / ~140F or higher) the plastic can start deforming slightly.

Great product

Very glad I got this -- it's so thoughtfully designed. It has everything you need. I usually don't need to take my contact out when I'm out of the house, but it's great to have this just in case. And because it's so well-designed, I can just grab it and go, instead of remembering each little item individually and figuring out how and where to store them in my bag.

Warped and stuck plunger case

The case quickly warped and I could not remove the plunger case from the hole. Unit was left in a car, but in the glove box. The idea is nice, but the unit is a little bulky for my taste.

OBSESSED!

This is amazing! I love this so much and it's so useful. I am showing this off to all my friends, even though they don't know or understand scleral lens and they don't necessarily need to, but they are very happy for me.

Only little complaint/wish is that it was available in other colors on this website.

Perfect size to take with you!

The Tinker Turtle everyday case is far better than a bag in your purse. It is organized so you can find what you need. There are those times the sclerals just have to come out or the “fogging” has to be cleaned. You don’t necessarily get to choose when or where so being ready is essential. The Tinker Turtle organized me and I’m grateful!
