INTRAOCULAR LENS INJECTOR
There is provided an intraocular lens injector 1 for injecting into an eye an intraocular lens 4 having an optical portion 4 a and a pair of support portions 4 b , comprising: an injector main body 5 having a lens housing portion 11 for housing the intraocular lens 4 , a slider 6 movably arranged along an injection direction of the intraocular lens 4 , and a rod 10 movably arranged along the injection direction, separately from the slider 6 or in connection with the slider 6 ; the intraocular lens injector having, as a range of motion of the slider and the rod: a first range of motion SI where a rear support portion 4 b of the pair of the intraocular lens 4 in the lens housing portion 11 is tucked by a movement of the rod 10 , and a second range of motion S 2 where the intraocular lens is moved from the lens housing portion 11 to a predetermined position on the forward side of the injection direction by interlocking the slider 6 and the rod 10.
1 . An intraocular lens injector for injecting into an eye an intraocular lens having an optical portion and a pair of support portions extending from the optical portion, comprising:
an injector main body having a lens housing portion for housing the intraocular lens to be injected,
a slider movably arranged along an injection direction of the intraocular lens which pushes out the intraocular lens housed in the lens housing portion, and
a stick-like rod movably arranged along the injection direction, separate from the slider or in connection with the slider;
the intraocular lens injector having, as a range of motion of the slider and the rod:
a first range of motion where a rear support portion of the pair of support portions in the intraocular lens in the lens housing portion is tucked by a movement of the rod, and
a second range of motion where the intraocular lens is moved from the lens housing portion to a predetermined position on the forward side of the injection direction by interlocking the slider and the rod while the rear support portion of the lens is being tacked.
2 . The intraocular lens injector according to claim 1 ,
wherein the intraocular lens injector has, as a range of motion of the slider and the rod, a third range of motion where the intraocular lens at the predetermined position is pushed out of the injector main body by moving the rod which is out of connection with the slider.
3 . The intraocular lens injector according to claim 1 or 2 ,
wherein the slider is configured to make contact with the intraocular lens at a plurality of points.
4 . The intraocular lens injector according to any one of claims 1 to 3 ,
wherein the slider and the rod are configured so that the movement of the rod is guided by the sliders that sandwich the rod.
5 . The intraocular lens injector according to any one of claims 1 to 4 ,
further comprising a slider tab movably arranged along the injection direction,
wherein the slider tab is configured to be in connection with the rod to cause the rod to move in the first range of motion, and to be in connection with the slider and the rod to cause the slider and the rod to move in the second range of motion.
