Lens manipulators

A lens manipulator is a hand-held ophthalmic surgical instrument for relocation, expression, rotation, and manipulation of the eye lens, as a rule during ultrasound emulsification of the cataract prior to aspiration while preparing to implant an intraocular lens (IOL). It usually consists of a rod-type handle with a working tip shaped as a hook, a Y-shaped probe, a ring or as any other suitable form.
