Intraocular lens implanting instrument

摘要

An instrument for implanting an elastically deformable intraocular lens has a forceps jaw, a stationary member and operations structure. The operations structure includes members capable of enabling the sequential (i) placing the lens in the undeformed state on the stationary member, (ii) closing the forceps jaws to fold the lens into its folded state and forming a folding chamber with a nozzle at its end, and (iii) pushing of the lens in its folded state axially out of the folding chamber through the nozzle so as to allow the lens to expand from its folded state to its undeformed state.
