Abstract

See full text

An apparatus for eye surgery may comprise a nozzle having a delivery lumen, an implant bay coupled to the nozzle, an implant disposed in the implant bay, and an actuator coupled to the implant bay. The actuator may comprise a housing; a bore through the housing; a plunger disposed within the bore; and a compression ring. The plunger can be configured to advance within the bore, thereby advancing the implant from the implant bay through the delivery lumen, and the bore can be configured to compress the compression ring as the plunger moves through the bore. In some embodiments, the bore can be configured to increase compression on the compression ring as the first end of the plunger moves through the bore.
