An intraocular lens RSP-3 is implanted through a self-sealing incision 2.2 mm by placing a posterior haptic part of the lens into a cartridge of an injector pre-filled with a viscoelastic. With an anterior haptic part pressed, a lens is folded along the cartridge, used to fill the cartridge and implanted in an anterior chamber.
