Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	This intraocular lens (lOL) injector for delivering an lOL into an eye of a patient includes an lOL load chamber and connected delivery tube, and a spring-loaded push rod for urging the lOL through the delivery tube and out of a distal tip thereof. The injector includes an actuator (30) that is cocked to compress an automatic delivery coil spring (52). Cocking the actuator also folds the lOL and may elongate a dual optic lOL. A braking (48) mechanism may be provided to permit control of the spring-biased lOL advancement. The injector is in a pen style with finger plates on the side for better ergonomic control.
