DEVICE FOR INSERTING A FLEXIBLE INTRAOCULAR LENS |
摘要 |
This invention is a device for inserting a flexible intraocular lens (12) in to an eye comprising a tubular member (16) and a plunger (18). The tubular member includes a staging area (45), a lumen, and an open distal end (95). The staging area supports the lens in a n unsteressed state prior to engagement by the plunger. In the unstressed stat e, the optic (48) of the lens is suspended in a pocket t o avoid any substantial contact with interior portions of the tubular member. The plunge r includes a slot (132) in its distal tip fo receiving a nd gripping the lens. With this construction, the lens can be inserted into the eye in o ne continuous motion. Further, the plunger holds the len s when the lens is moved out of the tubular member.
