An accommodating intraocular lens device is provided. The accommodating intraocular lens device comprises a base assembly and a power lens. The base assembly comprises a first open end, a second end coupled to a base lens, and a haptic surrounding a central cavity. The haptic may comprise an outer periphery, an inner surface and a height between a first edge and a second edge. The power lens is configured to fit within the central cavity. The power lens may comprise a first side, a second side, a peripheral edge coupling the first and second sides, and a closed cavity configured to house a fluid. The first side of the power lens may be positioned at a predetermined distance from the first edge of the haptic.

An ophthalmic device includes an optic having an optic axis and a closed-loop haptic structure coupled with the optic. The closed loop haptic structure includes a first hinge having a first section, a second section, and a connecting section extending between the first section and the second section. The first section has a first component extending in a first angular direction and a second component extending in a second angular direction that is opposite to the first angular direction. The closed loop haptic structure further includes a second hinge including a radial section and an axial section extending from the axial section in the first angular direction, the radial section having a cross-sectional area greater than a maximum cross-sectional area of the first hinge.

An intraocular lens (IOL) folding device is described.

A tonic lens guide comprises a substantially linear bar member and a pair of crab claw members fixedly attached to opposite ends of the linear bar member. The toric lens guide is adapted to be mounted upon an intraocular lens (IOL) which has been implanted within the capsular bag of a human eye during cataract surgery such that the substantially linear bar member is adapted to be disposed atop the central optic component of the intraocular lens (IOL) while the crab claw members effectively grasp the optica/haptic junctions of the intraocular lens (IOL). After the intraocular lens (IOL) is implanted within the capsular bag, it is rotated within the capsular bag such that the substantially linear bar member of the toric lens guide will effectively define a diametrical vector across the intraocular lens (IOL) such that the cataract surgeon can precisely orient the intraocular lens (IOL) within the capsular bag such that the patient's astigmatism is optimally corrected.

Disclosed are adjustable intraocular lenses and methods of adjusting intraocular lenses post-operatively. In one embodiment, an adjustable intraocular lens can comprise an optic portion and a peripheral portion. The peripheral portion can comprise a composite material comprising an energy absorbing constituent and a plurality of expandable components. A base power of the optic portion can be configured to change in response to an external energy directed at the composite material.

A multi-part intraocular lens (IOL) with an interchangeable optic seated on a base and secured by a locking mechanism. The optic comprises an anterior surface with a diameter greater than a diameter of a ring of the base. The posterior side of the optic has a posterior surface, a transition region for contact with the base, and sidewalls and tabs radially outward of the transition region. The sidewalls and tabs overlap at least a portion of the ring to reduce or even prevent decentration and tilt of the optic. Each tab has a lateral extension for coupling to the base.

The present invention relates to a posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens (1) comprising a central optical part (2), a peripheral haptic part (3) having distal support elements (4) arranged for supporting the intraocular lens (1) on a ciliary zonule, elongated flexible footplates (5) mounted on the support elements (4), each having a distal lateral border (53) arranged for stabilizing the intraocular lens (1) into a ciliary body (98), and manipulation pockets (6) on a surface of the support elements (4), each being associated with one of the elongated flexible footplates (5).

An intraocular implant device includes: (1) a lens portion; and (2) a peripheral portion surrounding the lens portion, wherein the peripheral portion includes multiple fiducials including a first fiducial, a second fiducial, and a third fiducial, the first fiducial, the second fiducial, and the third fiducial are positioned in the peripheral portion so that the third fiducial is displaced from a line segment connecting the first fiducial and the second fiducial.

The invention relates to an intraocular lens comprising an optics body and a haptic which has a first component with a latching protrusion and a second component with a latching recess, the latching protrusion and the latching recess being arranged at a distance from one another when the haptic is arranged in a relaxed state and being configured to engage with one another when, proceeding from the relaxed state, the haptic is moved in the direction of the optics body into a completely compressed state of the haptic via a partially compressed state of the haptic, the haptic being formed by a single piece and having a haptic cutout which is delimited by the first component and the second component.

Disclosed are adjustable accommodating intraocular lenses and methods of adjusting accommodating intraocular lenses post-operatively. In one embodiment, an adjustable accommodating intraocular lens comprises an optic portion and a peripheral portion. At least one of the optic portion and the peripheral portion can be made in part of a composite material comprising an energy absorbing constituent and a plurality of expandable components. At least one of a base power and a cylindricity of the optic portion can be configured to change in response to an external energy directed at the composite material.
