PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a hard contact lens (HCL) storing case which advantageously allows wearing of HCL while preventing a deformation of HCL as much as possible when the HCL is taken-out and taken-in from/to a lens storing space without touching an inner side of the HCL with a finger, that is, without allowing stains or germs on the finger to be attached to the inner side of the HCL.SOLUTION: A lens storing space 20 is formed between a holder body 22 and a lend placing face 26a in a lens holder 16, and an easily-deformable holder cover 24 is provided on which a notch 38 for lens handling is formed. A HCL 18 placed on a lens slide guiding face 26b is slid by pressing movement by a finger, and pressed inwardly by raising a tip part of the holder cover 24. The HCL 18 is further guided along the notch for lens handling to move onto the lens placing face 26a in the lens storing space 20.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
