ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for manual or semiautomatic computer controlled laser staking of a haptic to an optic of an intraocular lens. An Nd:YAG laser with a HeNe laser aiming beam provides laser power to a fiber optic multiplexer to deliver laser energy to a plurality of staking work stations where the haptics are melted or fused to a lens optic. A fiber optic laser stylus is brought in close proximity with a haptic and optic for application of laser power to fuse or join the haptic to the optic in a cylindrically fused fashion, producing no surface wound and effectively sealing the haptic hole.
