Abstract
An injection system for an intraocular lens (IOL) utilizes a folding device for the IOL. The folding device comprises a pair of co-acting winglets pivotable between an open position and a closed position, and together defining a hinge axis and a receptacle for the IOL. Each winglet has an outwardly extending, unitary leg portion defining a base plane that includes the hinge axis and a motion limiting protuberance on each said leg portion extending from the base plane. The base planes are situated at an angle relative to one another and the protuberances abut one another when the winglets are in the open position. The base planes merge into a single plane when the winglets are in the closed position.
