Intraocular implants and methods of making intraocular implants are provided. The intraocular implants can improve the vision of a patient, such as by increasing the depth of focus of an eye of a patient. In particular, the intraocular implants can include a mask having an annular portion with a relatively low visible light transmission surrounding a relatively high transmission central portion such as a clear lens or aperture. This construct is adapted to provide an annular mask with a small aperture for light to pass through to the retina to increase depth of focus. The intraocular implant may have an optical power for refractive correction. The intraocular implant may be implanted in any location along the optical pathway in the eye, e.g., as an implant in the anterior or posterior chamber.

An implantable device for supporting an artificial intraocular lens in an eye having an anterior segment of a capsular bag, an iris, and a sclera. The device includes a posterior platform having an anterior-facing surface and an inner wall defining, at least in part, a central aperture. When the device is implanted in the eye, light passes through the intraocular lens and the central aperture of the posterior platform towards the retina. The device includes at least one awning positioned over the anterior-facing surface of the posterior platform forming at least one recess anterior to the posterior platform. The device is configured to be deployed in the eye posterior of the iris so that no portion of the device rests in contact with the sclera after implantation. Related tools, systems, and methods are provided.

A prosthetic capsular device configured to be inserted in an eye after removal of a lens, in some embodiments, can comprise a housing structure comprising capable of containing an intraocular device and an equiconvex refractive surface. The housing structure can comprise an anterior portion comprising an anterior opening, a posterior portion comprising a posterior opening, and a continuous lateral portion between the anterior portion and the posterior portion.

A device for supporting an intraocular lens in an eye. The device has a lens support structure having an inner perimeter surface defining, at least in part, a central opening. When implanted, light may pass through the central opening towards the retina. The device has at least three fixation arms, each having an origin portion coupled to the lens support structure and a terminal portion comprising an anchor for trans-scleral fixation of the device. Prior to implantation, at least one fixation arm is biased towards a folded configuration and has a bend between the origin portion and the terminal portion. The origin portion extends away from the lens support structure and the anchor of the terminal portion is positioned over or under at least one of a portion of the lens support structure and a portion of the central opening. Related tools, systems, and methods are provided.

A corneal implant (10) includes a central portion (12) and a peripheral skirt (14) extending outwards from the central portion (12), and at least a portion of the peripheral skirt (14) includes a mesh (16).

The present disclosure provides intraocular artificial lenses having a variable optical strength and methods of treating an eye disorder, such as presbyopia, using same. In some embodiments, the intraocular artificial lens comprises two optical elements that are moveable along the optical axis in relation to each other, for example in response to the accommodative process of the eye.

A corneal implant designed for correcting irregularities of the corneal curvature of a subject, the implant having a dome-shaped structural body configured to impose a regular curvature to the corneal portions designed to be in contact with the implant. The structural body includes an outer peripheral ring and an inner reticular structure. The inner reticular structure includes at least one first and one second series of beams intersecting each other. The beams of the first series have a respective first end connected to the outer peripheral ring. The total area of void portions within the meshes of the reticular structure is between 50 and 99.9% of the surface area of the reticular structure. The inner reticular structure includes an innermost peripheral ring and the beams of the second series include annular beams arranged concentrically to each other. The reticular structure includes a third series of beams, having a respective first end connected to the outer peripheral ring and a respective second end connected to an annular beam defining a circumference or perimeter greater than the circumference or perimeter defined by the innermost peripheral ring.
