Patent number: 9277989Abstract: A preloaded intraocular lens injection device includes a retainer for releasably holding an IOL in an unstressed state. The retainer and IOL are removably attached to an injector body and are sealed in the same package for delivery to a surgeon. In an alternate embodiment, the retainer and IOL are coupled together and sealed in one package and the injector body is sealed in a separate package with the surgeon attaching the retainer to the injector body at the time of surgery. To deliver the IOL through the injector body, the retainer is removed from the injector body causing the IOL to release from the retainer and become located in an unstressed state in the injector body. A compressor is moved to the closed position to compress the IOL, the injector tip is inserted through a small incision in an eye and a plunger is advanced to push the IOL through and out the injector body tip and into an eye.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2010Date of Patent: March 8, 2016Assignee: Bausch & Lomb IncorporatedInventors: Edward Vaquero, Brian D. Rathert, Thomas M. Heyman, Aaron M. Torp, Martin P. Schooping, Philip L. Bryan

Patent number: 7085515Abstract: A developer cartridge for containing a developer and for delivering the developer to a developer hopper of an electro-photographic machine. A developer containment portion includes a first portion having an at least partially closed volume configured to contain the developer and a second portion adjacent the first portion and having an opening configured to deliver the developer to the developer hopper. A sealing gasket is disposed adjacent the second portion of the developer containment portion and surrounds at least a portion of a circumference of the opening. A first cover is disposed adjacent the second portion of the developer containment portion and is positionable between an open position for delivery of the developer and a closed position for preventing delivery of the developer. The sealing gasket contacts the first cover to prevent undesired leakage of the developer therebetween.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2005Date of Patent: August 1, 2006Inventors: Michael E. Bausch, Mary A. Dailor, David H. Hudson, Scott W. Miller, Michael L. Schneier, Martin P. Schooping
