Provided is an intraocular lens insertion instrument that can make the posture of an intraocular lens, which is ejected from the insertion instrument, more stable. An intraocular lens insertion instrument comprises: an instrument body having an insertion tube through which an intraocular lens moves, the intraocular lens having a lens body and a support section connected to the lens body via a connection section; and an intraocular lens storage section. A slit is provided that extends from an opening in a leading end of the insertion tube to a rear end thereof. The connection section of the support section is arranged so as to deviate from a central axis of the instrument body in a prescribed direction in a projection view of the body of the insertion instrument from an optical axis direction of the intraocular lens in a state where the intraocular lens is stored in the storage section. In a front view of the instrument body, when seen along the central axis of the instrument body, a width-direction position of the center of the slit is arranged tilted at a prescribed angle in the same direction as the connection section of the support section of the intraocular lens stored in the storage section with respect to a rearward direction along the optical axis of the intraocular lens in the instrument body. |
