HAPTIC OPTIC MANAGEMENT SYSTEM UTILIZING ROTATING CAMS
Systems, methods, and devices for inserting an intraocular lens (IOL) into an eye may be provided. An example haptic optic management system may comprise a first cam assembly comprising a first cam body portion, an opening in the first cam body portion, and haptic folder arms disposed in the opening. The haptic optic management system may further comprise a second cam assembly positioned on one side of the first cam assembly, wherein the second cam assembly comprises a second cam body portion, an opening in the second cam body portion, and optic folders disposed in the opening. The haptic optic management system may further comprise a central plate for holding an intraocular lens in the opening of the second cam body portion, wherein the central plate is disposed between the first cam assembly and the second cam assembly.
BATTERY-POWERED IOL INJECTOR
Systems, methods, and devices for inserting an intraocular lens (IOL) into an eye may be provided. An example IOL injector device may include a housing, wherein the housing comprises a first end and a second end. The IOL injector device further may include a battery and a plunger disposed within the housing. The IOL injector device further may include a motor powered by the battery and configured to cause the plunger to translate in the housing. The IOL injector device further may include a user interface disposed on the housing, wherein the user interface receives user input to start translation of the plunger.
Intraocular lens cartridge having a lubricant feed duct and injector incorporating said cartridge
A cartridge accommodates an intraocular lens and includes first and second cartridge parts pivotally moveable relative to each other to define an open state and a closed state. The first cartridge part has a first base element and a first plate-like wing extending from the first base element. The second cartridge part has a second base element and a second plate-like wing extending from the second base element. The first and second base elements conjointly define a receiving chamber for the lens when the first and second cartridge parts are in the closed state. A lubricant feed arrangement supplies a lubricant for the lens into the receiving chamber from outside of the cartridge when the cartridge is in the closed state. The lubricant feed arrangement includes a feed channel which is formed in one of the cartridge parts and opens into the receiving chamber.
INTRAOCULAR LENS DELIVERY DEVICES AND METHODS OF USE
Intraocular lens delivery devices and methods of use.
INTRAOCULAR LENS INJECTOR
Apparatuses, systems, and methods for implanting an intraocular lens into an eye are described. For example, an intraocular lens injector may include a passage formed in a distal end portion of the intraocular lens injector. The passage may define an interior surface, and a ramp may be formed on the interior surface so as to cause a leading haptic of an intraocular lens (IOL) being advanced through the passage to lift above a surface of an optic of the IOL to ensure proper folding of the IOL.
Ancillary for the storage and the injection of intra ocular lens
This invention is related to a cartridge Injector System developed to be used for intraocular lens implantation, that enables the lens injection via a microsurgical incision in the eye and basically wraps the lens (L) by holding from the edges and provides the lens implantation with this method, also related with twisting body (7) keeping the lens in a closed environment.
Push and twist mechanism for interfacing a drive mechanism handpiece with an intraocular lens cartridge
Systems, methods, and apparatuses for inserting an intraocular lens (IOL) into an eye, are provided. An apparatus comprises an IOL cartridge comprising a nozzle, a compartment, and a plunger case. The nozzle is in fluid communication with the compartment, and the plunger case is in fluid communication with the compartment. The plunger is disposed within the plunger case. The plunger case is configured to removably attach to a handpiece.
HYDRAULIC DELIVERY OF SURGICAL IMPLANTS
A system or apparatus for using a cartridge for eye surgery. An implant may be mechanically advanced to a sealed position in a first phase, and then the implant may be advanced into the eye via hydraulic pressure or fluid flow in a second phase. An actuator may comprise a hollow plunger and a chamber configured to receive the cartridge. The actuator may be configured to fluidly couple the cartridge to an implant bay. In a first delivery phase, the actuator may move the plunger to advance the implant into a nozzle. In a second delivery phase, the actuator may move a working fluid from the cartridge through the plunger to advance the implant through the nozzle.
ACCOMMODATIVE INTRAOCULAR LENS
An accommodating intraocular lens implant (10) is provided that is shaped so as to be assemblable into an assembled state in situ in a capsular bag of a human eye, and includes an anterior floating lens unit (24), which comprises an anterior lens (26); a posterior lens unit (50), which comprises a posterior lens (52); an anterior rim (44); levers (30), arranged to move the anterior floating lens unit (24) toward and away from the anterior rim (44), in an anterior-posterior direction; and a circumferential rim (48), which is attached to the levers (30). The lens implant (10) is arranged such that in the assemble state: elastic potential energy is stored in the lens implant (10) as a result of deformation of the lens implant (10) during a transition from a fully-accommodated state to a fully-unaccommodated state, and at least 50% of the elastic potential energy stored in the lens implant (10) as the result of the deformation is stored in the circumferential rim (48).
INTRAOCULAR LENS INSERTION DEVICE
An intraocular lens insertion device which dramatically reduces the possibility that a plunger damages an intraocular lens, and which can safely and surely insert an intraocular lens into an eye is provided. An intraocular lens insertion unit comprises a lens disposing part for disposing an intraocular lens, a plunger for pushing out the intraocular lens disposed at the lens disposing part, a transition part for deforming the intraocular lens pushed out by the plunger, and a nozzle for ejecting the deformed intraocular lens. The plunger has a lens contact part for contacting the outer edge of the intraocular lens, and a protrusive part for pushing the lens contact part downward the intraocular lens by the deformation of the intraocular lens, both lens contact part and protrusive part are provided at the leading end of the plunger.
