Abstract
The present invention provides a scleral dissector for use in implanting artificial lens in human eyes. The dissector includes an elongated handle having a substantially planar cutting blade secured to and extending laterally outwardly from one end. A substantially planar guide is also attached to the handle so that the guide is spaced from and generally parallel to the blade. The guide is adapted to abut against the outer surface of the sclera during a scleral dissection. The spacing between the guide and the blade is preferably adjustable.
