Pre-loaded injector for use with intraocular lens |
摘要 |
An injector folding and injecting a flexible intraocular lens into the eye of a patient is described. The injector is configured to be loaded with the intraocular lens, and optionally, an aqueous solution, before the injector and lens are sterilized. The injector includes a lens compartment that is configured to prevent leakage of the aqueous fluid from the lens compartment caused by autoclaving/sterilization. |

1. An injector for folding and injecting into the eye of a patient a deformable intraocular lens, the injector comprising:
an injection nozzle assembly; an injector body having a space for holding an unfolded deformable intraocular lens, the injector body in communication with the injection nozzle assembly; a flange mounted on the injector body at a position proximal to the space for holding the unfolded deformable intraocular lens and the injection nozzle assembly, the flange having a plurality of seal holes disposed adjacent an outer edge of the flange; a cap configured to be mounted to the flange and having a plurality of seal posts configured to engage the plurality of seal holes in a one-to-one arrangement, the cap having an interior space defining a cavity that, when the cap is mounted to the flange, defines a reservoir for holding a fluid to bath the injection nozzle assembly, the space for holding the unfolded deformable intraocular lens, and an unfolded deformable intraocular space disposed within that space; and a flexible clamp having an upper lip and a lower lip connected by a web to form a U-shaped channel, the flexible clamp configured to circumferentially engage an edge of the flange and a top edge of the cap in such a manner as to removably fix the cap to the flange in a fluid tight configuration. |
