SP3 - IOL Injector

SP3 is an intraocular lens injector that can be operated with a single hand, allowing the surgeon to stabilize the eye with another tool. By incorporating a specialized tip in its plunger, SP3 eliminates the need of requiring an additional tool to reposition the lens after injecting.

This project is done with Sylvia Ang Kai Xin in collaboration with Singapore National Eye Centre. Patent Pending (TEC-12-22-Device for Single Handled Injection of an Intraocular Lens)
