Prosthetic capsular devices (e.g., bag, bowl, housing, structure, cage, frame) include technology devices such as a computer, virtual reality device, display device, WiFi/internet access device, image receiving device, biometric sensor device, game device, image viewers or senders, GPSs, e-mail devices, combinations thereof, and/or the like. The technology devices can be used in combination with an intraocular lens. The output from the technology device(s) can be fed to the retina of the user to provide a visual image, can be otherwise connected to the user, and/or can be used to control the properties of the intraocular lens or of the prosthetic capsular device. Wearable technology that provides biometric data, such as blood glucose levels, body temperature, electrolyte balance, heart rate, EKG, EEG, intraocular pressure, sensing ciliary muscle contraction for accommodation stimulus, dynamic pupil change and retinal prostheses, combinations thereof, and the like can assist in technology-assisted health care functions.

A prosthetic capsular device configured to be inserted in a natural capsular bag of an eye after removal of a lens includes a housing structure capable of containing an intraocular device. The housing structure includes a posterior side, an anterior side opposite the posterior side, lateral sides extending between the posterior side and the anterior side, and a cavity at least partially defined by the posterior side, the anterior side, and the lateral sides. The posterior side includes a refractive surface and an opening radially outward of the refractive surface. The anterior side includes an aperture capable of allowing at least one of insertion, removal, and replacement of an intraocular device. The cavity is capable of containing an intraocular device.

Modular IOL removal systems and methods that cut an optic portion of an intraocular in a single motion such to facilitate removal of the optic portion from an eye through an incision, for example a corneal incision, without increasing the size of the corneal incision. Various cutting tools having one or more blades may be utilized. The cut intraocular lens may have one continuous cut or be cut into multiple smaller pieces. The single cutting step may apply balanced forces and torque to avoid damaging the surrounding eye anatomy, reducing the risk of trauma.

An intraocular optic assembly can include a first lens, a first plurality of stanchions, a second lens, and a second plurality of stanchions. A central optic axis can extend through centers of the first and second lenses. The first plurality of stanchions can each extend a first distance between a first base end and a first distal end. The first lens can be connected with the first distal ends. The second plurality of stanchions can each extend a second distance between a second base end and a second distal end. The second lens can be connected with the second distal ends. Compression at the peripheries of the stanchions induces movement of the lenses apart from one other.

A multi-layer intraocular lens (IOL) includes a lens body, including an anterior diffractive optics layer, comprising a first biocompatible material, and a posterior diffractive optics layer, comprising a second biocompatible material that is different from the first biocompatible material. The anterior diffractive optics layer and the posterior diffractive optics layer are sealed in a peripheral non-optic portion of the lens body with a gap between the anterior diffractive optics layer and the posterior diffractive optics layer.

An IOL utilizes a haptic formed as a toroid portion configured to fit into a capsular bag of an aphakic eye of a patient. The toroid portion may be separate from an IOL optic and may include a receiving feature for the IOL optic. The toroid portion may be configured for intraoperative fluid-filling for snug fitting at the equator of the capsular bag, in order to immobilize the IOL optic.

An ophthalmic implant for drug delivery. The implant includes a primary intracapsular device coupled to a secondary device, wherein, when implanted in a patient's eye, the primary intracapsular device is held in place by the patient's capsular bag and the secondary device is held in place by the primary intracapsular device. The implant may be inserted in the eye by injecting the primary intracapsular device into the eye either before or after attaching the secondary device to the primary intracapsular device, and subsequently positioning the joined secondary device and primary intracapsular device with the primary intracapsular device held in place by the patient's capsular bag and the secondary device held in place by the primary intracapsular device. The secondary device may be designed to hold a tertiary device that can be implanted and attached at the time of surgery or anytime postoperatively.

An apparatus includes an intraocular pseudophakic contact lens. The intraocular pseudophakic contact lens includes an optical lens configured to at least partially correct a residual refractive error in an eye. The residual refractive error includes a refractive error that exists in the eye after implantation of an artificial intraocular lens in the eye. The intraocular pseudophakic contact lens also includes one or more haptics configured to be inserted under an anterior leaflet of a capsular wall in the eye in order to capture and confine the one or more haptics under the anterior leaflet and secure the intraocular pseudophakic contact lens against the artificial intraocular lens.

A capsular ring includes substantially circular anterior and posterior surfaces each defining a central void of the capsular ring, at least a portion of the anterior and posterior surfaces being substantially flat. The capsular ring further includes an exterior surface extending around the circumference of the capsular ring between the anterior surface and the posterior surface, wherein there is a sharp transition between the exterior surface and both the anterior surface and the posterior surface. The capsular ring further includes a plurality of orifices spaced circumferentially around the exterior surface and a plurality of haptics spaced circumferentially around the exterior surface and extending outwardly from the capsular ring; each of the plurality of haptics being configured, upon insertion of the capsular ring into a capsular bag of a patient's eye, to engage an equatorial region of the capsular bag of the patient's eye.

An intraocular lens system for implantation in an eye is provided. The intraocular lens system has a ciliary body implant with a ciliary magnet element, the ciliary body implant being implantable in the eye such that the ciliary magnet element at least partially follows the movements of the ciliary body of the eye. The intraocular lens system also includes an intraocular lens with a lens magnet element. The ciliary body implant and the intraocular lens are formed separately from each other and the intraocular lens system is adapted to control a refractive effect of the intraocular lens via an interaction between the ciliary magnet element and the lens magnet element in the eye. The disclosure also relates to a ciliary body implant and an intraocular lens.
