[Instrument requirements for lens implantation in the capsule sac]

The more accurate the positioning and fixation of the intraocular lens has to be, the more important the process of gentle, but nevertheless reliable introduction of the lens into the posterior chamber becomes. New types of instruments are required for this. The special instruments needed for intracapsular implantation are discussed and their use demonstrated. Newly developed implantation forceps are described for the first time.
