An insertion device for an intraocular lens includes a lens-holding section having a cavity for accommodating an intraocular lens, a deforming section for deforming the lens to a reduced size, an insertion tube through which the deformed lens is inserted into an eye, a pusher mechanism for pushing and inserting the lens into the eye, and a lens-moving mechanism for moving the lens from a standby position to an insertion position at which the pusher mechanism can push and insert the lens into the eye. A lubricant is injected into the interior of the insertion tube and/or the cavity of the lens-holding section for smooth insertion of the lens. The insertion device has an indicating mark for indicating quantity of the injected lubricant. Further, the insertion device includes an erroneous operation prevention member for preventing accidental operation of the lens-moving mechanism.
