ABSTRACT:
A tool configured to prepare a dual-optic accommodating intraocular lens for implantation can comprise a first portion and a second portion. The first portion can comprise a base and at least one elongate guide associated with the base. The first portion can be in contact with and not movable relative to a first optic of the lens during at least a portion of the preparation of the lens. The a second portion can comprise an actuator having an engagement surface in contact with a second optic of the lens and at least one protrusion extending away from the engagement surface. The protrusion can be configured to extend into engagement with the elongate guide. The first and second portions can be movable relative to each other as permitted by the guide(s) and protrusion(s) to move the optics so that the lens takes on a more compact condition for implantation.
