Abstract

Intraocular lens loading devices and methods of use. In some embodiment the devices are used to sequentially splay first and second haptics while loading the intraocular lens into a delivery lumen.

Claims (27)

1. A device for loading an intraocular lens, comprising:

a base member, comprising:

an intraocular lens receiving region configured to house an intraocular lens, and

a cartridge receiving region;

a side port for receiving a fluid, wherein the side port is in fluid communication with the intraocular lens receiving region; and

a cartridge configured to be coupled to the cartridge receiving region of the base member, wherein the cartridge is configured to receive the intraocular lens from the intraocular lens receiving region after the intraocular lens receiving region is lubricated by the fluid introduced through the side port.

2. The device of claim 1 , further comprising a lid configured to cover at least part of the intraocular lens receiving region when coupled to the base member.

3. The device of claim 2 , wherein the lid is configured to compress at least part of the intraocular lens when coupled to the base member.

4. The device of claim 2 , wherein at least part of the lid is transparent.

5. The device of claim 2 , wherein the lid comprises a window, wherein the window allows a power and lens quality of the intraocular lens to be assessed when the intraocular lens is housed within the intraocular lens receiving region.

6. The device of claim 5 , wherein the window is configured to be covered by a lid plug.

7. The device of claim 1 , wherein the side port is in fluid communication with an exit port in fluid communication with the intraocular lens receiving region, wherein the exit port is positioned such that the fluid entering through the side port and exiting through the exit port is conveyed to an area around the intraocular lens.

8. The device of claim 1 , wherein the base member comprises a window, wherein the window allows a power and lens quality of the intraocular lens to be assessed when housed within the intraocular lens receiving region.

9. The device of claim 8 , further comprising a base plug configured to cover the window, wherein the base plug comprises the side port.

10. The device of claim 1 , wherein the fluid is a viscoelastic fluid.

11. A method of preparing an intraocular lens for delivery into an eye, comprising:

introducing a fluid through a side port into an intraocular lens receiving region of a base member, wherein the intraocular lens receiving region is configured to house an intraocular lens; and

loading the intraocular lens into a cartridge coupled to the base member using a loading member.

12. The method of claim 11 , further comprising coupling a lid to the base member to cover at least part of the intraocular lens receiving region.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the lid is configured to compress at least part of the intraocular lens when coupled to the base member.

14. The method of claim 12 , wherein at least part of the lid is transparent.

15. The method of claim 12 , wherein the lid comprises a window, wherein the window allows a power and lens quality of the intraocular lens to be assessed when housed within the intraocular lens receiving region.

16. The method of claim 15 , further comprising covering the window with a lid plug.

17. The method of claim 11 , wherein the side port is in fluid communication with an exit port in fluid communication with the intraocular lens receiving region, wherein the exit port is positioned such that the fluid entering through the side port and exiting through the exit port is conveyed to an area around the intraocular lens.

18. The method of claim 11 , wherein the base member comprises a window, wherein the window allows a power and lens quality of the intraocular lens to be assessed when the intraocular lens is housed within the intraocular lens receiving region.

19. The method of claim 18 , further comprising covering the window with a base plug, wherein the base plug comprises the side port.

20. The method of claim 11 , wherein the fluid is a viscoelastic fluid.
