Disclosed is a method for the automated transfer of an intraocular lens (1) comprising an optical lens body (10) and two haptics (11) attached to a peripheral edge of the optical lens body (10) and extending outwardly from the peripheral edge of the optical lens body (10). The method comprises the steps of: - picking the intraocular lens (1) up at a start location; - moving the intraocular lens (1) to a destination location; - releasing the intraocular lens (1) at the destination location, wherein picking the intraocular lens (1) up at the start location comprises - gripping the intraocular lens (1) only at the haptics (11) of the intraocular lens (1).[French]
