Abstract
A device (10) for inserting a flexible membrane (12) into an eye which includes a tubular member (16) with a passage (17), and a plunger (18) movably received in the passage. The passage has an open distal end adapted to be received into an eye for implantation of a lens, and a staging area (45) for initially reciving the lens into the passage. The tubular member includes an opening to permit loading of a lens into the staging area, and a cover (21) movable between an open position to expose the staging area and a closed position to enclose the staging area. The distal end of the plunger has a visual indicator (69) which provides a contrasting image as compared to the staging area. The visual indicator enables the surgeon to easily see whether the distal tip of the plunger is improperly positioned in the staging area before loading the lens.
