Abstract

See full text

An insertion guide for aiding the insertion of the superior haptic of an intraocular lens into the capsular bag of the eye during intraocular surgery. The guide is made of a thin, flexible material and has a body portion and a flap portion connected by an integral connecting portion which permits the flap to move from the first position folded against the body portion to a second position where the flap is disposed at an acute angle to the body portion so that the flap will act as a backstop to guide the superior haptic of an intraocular lens into the capsular bag. The present invention also relates to the method of inserting an intraocular lens using this guide.
