The invention relates to an aqueous viscoelastic solution comprising: at least one polymer selected from among hyaluronic acid and the salts thereof, and cellulosic derivatives and the salts thereof, in particular hydroxypropyl methylcellulose and the salts thereof; and at least one water-soluble polymer of the polyether-polyurethane or polyether-polyester-urethane type, and to the use thereof in a device intended for the injection of an intraocular implant.

An IOL injector plunger having IOL compression arms is described.

An implantable device for supporting an intraocular lens in an eye including a lens support structure having a central aperture; and one or more fixation arms coupled to the lens support structure and configured to locate and stabilize the device within the eye. Related tools, systems, and methods are provided.

A device for supporting an intraocular lens in an eye. The device has a lens support structure having an inner perimeter surface defining, at least in part, a central opening. When implanted, light may pass through the central opening towards the retina. The device has at least three fixation arms, each having an origin portion coupled to the lens support structure and a terminal portion comprising an anchor for trans-scleral fixation of the device. Prior to implantation, at least one fixation arm is biased towards a folded configuration and has a bend between the origin portion and the terminal portion. The origin portion extends away from the lens support structure and the anchor of the terminal portion is positioned over or under at least one of a portion of the lens support structure and a portion of the central opening. Related tools, systems, and methods are provided.

An insertion system for inserting an IOL int a patient's eye is provided. The insertion system includes a pusher and an introducer sheath with a back housing and a front housing. The front housing includes a longitudinally extending IOL rolling member with a proximal section, an intermediate section, a distal section and a longitudinally extending lumen defined by an upper face and a lower face. The lower face has opposing inner peripheral edges. The radius of curvature of the upper face and the lower face decreases from the proximal section to the distal section and the distance between the opposing inner peripheral edges decreases from the proximal section to the distal section.

The present disclosure describes a three-pronged forceps. The forceps are particularly useful for removing an intraocular lens from an eye.

An intraocular lens, instrument for insertion thereof, assembly of lens and instrument, and method for manufacture of such a lens. The lens includes an optical element of a flexible optical material and provided with a substantially circular periphery; and at least one haptic element provided with a haptic form-locking element. The optical element and the at least one haptic element with the haptic form-locking element are mutually connected by connection of the haptic element to the optical material.

Modular IOL systems including a base and a lens, wherein the lens includes fixed and actuatable tabs for connection to the base. The modular IOL allows for the lens to be adjusted or exchanged while leaving the base in place, either intra-operatively or post-operatively. Drug delivery capabilities and/or sensing capabilities may be incorporated into the base. Injector devices may be used to facilitate placement of the base and the lens sequentially or simultaneously into the eye.

Modular IOL removal systems and methods that cut an optic portion of an intraocular in a single motion such to facilitate removal of the optic portion from an eye through an incision, for example a corneal incision, without increasing the size of the corneal incision. Various cutting tools having one or more blades may be utilized. The cut intraocular lens may have one continuous cut or be cut into multiple smaller pieces. The single cutting step may apply balanced forces and torque to avoid damaging the surrounding eye anatomy, reducing the risk of trauma.
