Intraocular lens injector assembly having shuttle assembly retaining intraocular lens in storage vial and operably presenting intraocular lens in injector assembly
A shuttle, vial and injector are provided for storing and presenting an IOL to a patient. The shuttle includes operably engaged shuttle plates having a set of confronting surfaces that flex about a flexure interface between a storage configuration, with at least an optic of an IOL in a nominal state and a loading configuration, with at least an optic of an IOL in a deformed state. The vial engages the shuttle and maintains the shuttle in the storage configuration. The injector receives the shuttle from the vial and includes surfaces for flexing the portions of the shuttle plates to the loading configuration upon engagement with the injector, wherein the shuttle plates impart a predetermined curvature to at least a portion of the IOL.
HAPTIC OPTIC MANAGEMENT SYSTEM UTILIZING EDGE ROLLERS
Systems, methods, and devices for inserting an intraocular lens (IOL) into an eye may be provided. In an exemplary aspect, the present disclosure is directed to a haptic optic management system. The haptic management system may include a housing that includes a bore and a cavity disposed in a first surface of the housing. The cavity may include a first end portion, a second end portion, and a central portion, wherein the cavity provides access to the bore through the first surface of the housing. The haptic management system may include arms coupled to the housing. The haptic management system may include edge rollers coupled to the housing.
IOL INJECTOR HAVING A COLLAPSIBLE MECHANISM AND/OR A LEVER-DRIVEN RACK AND PINION
An IOL injector having a collapsible mechanism and/or a lever-driven rack and pinion is described.
IOL INJECTOR HAVING A LEVER-DRIVEN PLUNGER MECHANISM
An IOL injector having a lever-driven plunger mechanism is described.
COLLAPSING PUSH INJECTOR WITH HYDRAULIC DAMPING
Systems, methods, and devices for inserting an intraocular lens (IOL) assembly into an eye may be provided. A device for delivery of the IOL into the eye may include a housing; a nozzle operatively coupled to the housing; a first cylinder movably disposed within the housing; a second cylinder movably disposed within the housing, wherein the second cylinder is in fluid communication with the first cylinder; a plunger at least partially and movably disposed within the first cylinder; and a shaft movably disposed within the second cylinder, wherein the shaft is configured to move toward the lens component.
CAM-ACTUATED OPTIC LOCKOUT MECHANISM
Systems, methods, and devices, for delivery of a lens portion of a modular intraocular lens into an eye, may be provided. A device may include a housing; a nozzle positioned at an end of the housing, wherein an interior of the nozzle comprises a floor, the floor including an aperture; and a cam-actuated mechanism positioned within the housing, comprising: a lens stop comprising a base and a post, wherein the post is movably disposed within the aperture; and a slider configured to move in a direction toward the lens stop, wherein the lens stop is positioned at a distal end of the slider, the slider comprising a slot that is aligned with a portion of the base of the lens stop and configured to receive the portion of the base as the slider moves.
FOLDING DEVICE FOR INTRAOCULAR LENS INJECTOR
Intraocular lens (IOL) folding devices and methods of folding an IOL or components thereof are disclosed.
IOL FOLDING DEVICE
An intraocular lens (IOL) folding device is described.
IOL INJECTOR HAVING A SPRING-ASSISTED IOL DELIVERY MECHANISM
An IOL injector including a plunger having a spring-assisted IOL delivery mechanism is described.
CAM ACTUATED BASE FOLDING MECHANISM
Systems, methods, and devices for inserting an intraocular lens (IOL) assembly into an eye may be provided. A device for delivery of the IOL into the eye may include a nozzle; a bay adjacent to the nozzle, wherein the bay is configured to contain the lens component and comprises a recess in a shape of a haptic extension; and a cam-actuated mechanism comprising a slider configured to move in a direction toward the nozzle; a side arm moveably disposed within the bay, wherein the side arm is positioned at an end of the slider, the end of the slider comprising a groove aligned with the side arm, wherein the groove extends from an outer edge of the slider into an interior portion of the slider, wherein the groove is angled to receive the side arm as the slider moves.
