Abstract
An injector () for implanting a sensor implant () in the human or animal eye, in particular for the suprachoroidal implantation of a pressure sensor for the wireless measurement of the intraocular pressure, is improved in terms of rapid, complication-free, low-trauma and low-wear suprachoroidal implantation in that, to accommodate the sensor implant, the injector () has a substantially tubular injection chamber (), the inner wall surfaces () of which have a non-rotationally symmetrical cross section, preferably an oval or rectangular cross section, in that, at a free end, the injection chamber () is provided with an injection opening (), through which, during implantation, the sensor implant () can slide out and slide into a sclera incision in the eye, wherein the inner wall surfaces () of the injection chamber () enclose the likewise non-rotationally symmetrical cross section of the sensor implant () and prevent a rotation of the sensor implant () about an axis of rotation extending in the direction of the injection ().
