Abstract

An intraocular lens (IOL) insertion system, cartridge and/or combination cartridge and folding member that facilitates multiply folding an IOL within a load chamber of the cartridge prior to insertion in an eye. In the system embodiment, a folding member is provided in a handpiece that interacts with the cartridge to multiply fold the IOL therewithin. Alternatively, the cartridge may incorporate the folding member in its structure, or a separate folding member that interacts with the cartridge may be provided in a combination. The folding member may be a planar element that extends through a slot in the wall of the load chamber ot displace a midportion of the IOL away from the inner wall of the load chamber. Desirably, the multiply folded configuration that results is an M-shape or a W-shape, depending on orientation. The cartridge may further include structure that retains the multiply folded configuration of the IOL as it passes through an injection tube and into the eye.
