Uni-optic uv absorbing Intraocular Lenses Models: 880UV, 867uv description / Intended Use

Instructions for Use

1. Prior to implanting, examine the lens label on the unopened package for model, type, 

power, proper configuration and expiration date.

2. To remove the IOL, open pouch under aseptic conditions and remove the vial or tray.

3. Remove the vial’s top or foil lid and examine the lens.

4. When handling the lens using forceps, do not grasp the optical area with the forceps. Prior 

to the actual folding or injection process, the IOL should be handled by the haptic only.

5. Examine the IOL thoroughly to ensure particles have not become attached to it and 

examine the IOL optical surfaces for other defects.

6. The IOL may be soaked in sterile balanced salt solution until ready for implantation. The lOL 

must not be allowed to dehydrate. It is recommended that the lens be inserted into the 

eye within three (3) minutes from the time of folding or loading it into an injector.

7. Given the absorption capability of hydrophilic material, it is important to assure that lens 

does not come into contact with unnecessary substances prior to implantation.

8. Any unused lens and all packaging may be disposed of through normal waste streams 

unless the lens has contacted a patient. In the case of patient contact, the unused lens 

should be disposed of as biomedical waste.
