## Intended Use

The Medicel MultiJect injector for intraocular lenses is intended to insert foldable intraocular lenses CeeOn 913A and Tecnis Z9000 made by Pharmacia when used in conjunction with the MicroGlide cartridge.

## Device Story

The MultiJect injector is a reusable surgical instrument designed for the insertion of specific foldable intraocular lenses (IOLs) into the eye. It is used in conjunction with a single-use, sterile MicroGlide cartridge. The system is available in two configurations: a syringe-type injector and a screw-type injector. The injector body is constructed from titanium and is designed to be autoclaved for reuse, while the cartridge is made of lubricated polypropylene. The device is operated by a surgeon during ophthalmic procedures to facilitate the controlled delivery of the IOL into the eye. By providing a consistent delivery mechanism, the device assists in the surgical implantation process, potentially improving procedural efficiency and lens placement accuracy.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only, including biocompatibility testing of contact materials and functional testing with the specified intraocular lenses.

## Technological Characteristics

Two-component system: reusable injector and single-use sterile cartridge. Injector material: titanium. Cartridge material: lubricated polypropylene. Injector is autoclavable. Mechanical operation (syringe or screw type).

## Regulatory Identification

An intraocular lens guide is a device intended to be inserted into the eye during surgery to direct the insertion of an intraocular lens and be removed after insertion is completed.

## Predicate Devices

- Allergan Phacoflex ([K961242](/device/K961242.md))
- Alcon Monarch ([K003768](/device/K003768.md))
