ABSTRACT:
The disclosure relates to an instrument for implanting retinal tissue into the subretinal space of the eye. A tubular nozzle having an open end and an aperture in a sidewall thereof for the acceptance of retinal tissue, is telescoped over a mandrel. Retraction of the nozzle relative to the mandrel biases the retinal tissue out of the open end of the nozzle to effect deposition of the retinal tissue in a target area of the eye.
