AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
The existing multi-step process for delivering an intraocular lens (IOL) into an eye is cumbersome, requiring users to judge the proper dwell position of the IOL, leading to variability and increased procedural time and cost.
Method used
The apparatus includes a housing with a nozzle, a first cylinder with a plunger, and a second cylinder in fluid communication, utilizing a hydraulic mechanism to maintain a constant fluid flow rate and force-assist the user, ensuring controlled and consistent IOL delivery.
Benefits of technology
This solution provides a controlled and consistent delivery of the IOL, reducing the risk of sudden ejection and user fatigue, while maintaining sterility and improving ergonomic handling.
