<p>An apparatus (10) for inserting a folded intraocular lens (42) through an incision (112) into an eye (110) comprising a tube (24) defining a hollow passage, the tube (24) having an ejection port through which said intraocular lens (42) is passed from the hollow passage into an eye (110), an injector rod (130) longitudinally movable within the hollow passage of the tube (24), the injector rod (30) having a distal segment (94) adapted to contact the folded intraocular lens (42) within the hollow passage of the tube (24) to urge the folded intraocular lens (42) distally through the hollow passage, a housing including a distal portion (14) adapted to hold the tube (24), and a proximal portion (12) coupled to the distal portion (14), and a rotation assembly located relative to the distal portion (14) so that the distal portion (14) is axially rotated relative to the proximal portion (12) as the injector rod (30) is moved distally through the tube (24).</p> |
