Abstract: Provided is a package (100) for holding and dispensing a delivery shaft assembly (200) for delivery of an implant (230), the package (100) comprising a vial (400) and an insert (300) mounted within a vial holding space (410), wherein the insert (300) comprises: a force receiving body (308) configured to support an adapter (210) of a delivery shaft assembly (200) during coupling to the inserter tool (500), a delivery shaft retaining mechanism (310) configured to releasably retain the delivery shaft, wherein an application of force by an inserter tool (500) during coupling to the adapter (210) actuates the delivery shaft retaining mechanism (310) to release the retained delivery shaft (220) for withdrawal of the delivery shaft assembly (200) from the insert (300) and vial (400).
