Abstract: An insertion system for an intraocular lens includes an intraocular lens having a deformable optical portion, a lens package for storing the lens in a state in which no stress acts on the optical portion of the lens, a deforming member for deforming the lens to a reduced size, and an insertion device. The insertion device has an insertion tube through which the deformed lens is inserted into an eye, and a pusher mechanism for pushing and inserting the lens into the eye. The lens package has a function for attachment to the insertion device and a function for acting as a portion of the mechanism to be provided by the insertion device.

Abstract: An insertion system for an intraocular lens includes an intraocular lens having a deformable optical portion; a holding member for holding the lens at a standby position in a state in which no stress acts on the optical portion of the lens; a deforming member for deforming the lens to a reduced size; and an insertion device having an insertion tube through which the deformed lens is inserted into an eye, and a pusher mechanism for pushing and inserting the lens into the eye. The holding member includes a lens moving mechanism for moving the lens from the standby position to an insertion position at which the pusher mechanism can push and insert the lens into the eye.
