POSTERIOR CHAMBER PHAKIC INTRAOCULAR LENS
A posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens comprising a central optical part, a peripheral haptic part comprising a plurality of support elements arranged to lie on a ciliary zonule of an eye, and at least one flexible haptic comprising a reticulated distal region arranged to lay into a ciliary sulcus of the eye.
ACCOMMODATING INTRAOCULAR LENS ASSEMBLY
An accommodating intraocular lens 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.

Posterior chamber intraocular lens with swivel haptics for capsulotomy fixation
The present disclosure relates to a posterior chamber intraocular lens with swivel haptics for capsulotomy fixation in an eye. The posterior chamber intraocular lens includes a circular optic and at least one pair of swivel haptics. The circular optic is configured to be positioned within a capsular bag of the eye. The circular optic includes plurality of positioning holes on a periphery. The at least one pair of swivel haptics is positioned on the circular optic. The at least one pair of swivel haptics is configured to be rotated away from the circular optic and fixed above an anterior capsule of the eye.
Self-centering phakic refractive lenses with parachute design
An improved self-centering phakic refractive lens is disclosed. The lens floats freely in the posterior chamber of the eye and corrects vision of the patient but also prevents buildup of intraocular pressure, cataract induction and iris pigment dispersion. The lens comprises an optical body, haptic members which extend outward from the optical body, and a small hole in the approximate center of the optical body for the purpose of allowing aqueous humor to flow through that hole. The lens is designed such that its posterior surface conforms to the shape of the anterior surface of the patient's natural crystalline lens.
INTRAOCULAR LENS
The present invention relates to an intraocular lens, in particular for posterior chamber sutureless scleral fixation.
Intraocular lens and haptic for intraocular lens
An intraocular lens 1 includes a lens 2 and a haptic 3 connected to the lens 2. The lens 2 is disposed behind an iris 7 in an eye of a patient. The haptic 3 has a main body 3a and first and second projections 3d and 3e. The main body 3a extends from the lens 2 outward in a radial direction about a visual axis C of the patient. The first and second projections 3d and 3e are located so as to project from the main body 3a toward spaces between a plurality of ciliary zonules 10 connecting a crystalline lens 11 and a ciliary body 8 in the eye. Accordingly, an intraocular lens and a haptic for an intraocular lens that are able to inhibit the position of a lens from being displaced are provided.
Micro-incision IOL and positioning of the IOL in the eye
An intraocular lens that is capable of being inserted through a micro-incision includes an optic having an anterior and a posterior surface and a plurality of projections extending from the anterior and posterior surfaces. The anterior and posterior surfaces include a recess. The optic is implanted such that a rim of the capsulorhexis is disposed in the recess such that the plurality of projections grip the capsular bag.
INTRAOCULAR PSEUDOPHAKIC CONTACT LENS WITH MECHANISM FOR SECURING BY ANTERIOR LEAFLET OF CAPSULAR WALL AND RELATED SYSTEM AND METHOD
An apparatus includes an intraocular pseudophakic contact lens having an optical lens and haptics extending radially from the optical lens. The optical lens is 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 haptics are configured to be inserted under an anterior leaflet of a capsular wall in the eye in order to capture and confine the haptics under the anterior leaflet and secure the intraocular pseudophakic contact lens against the artificial intraocular lens. Anterior surfaces of the haptics are configured to contact an inner capsular wall surface at the anterior leaflet. Posterior surfaces of the haptics include ridges configured to capture at least one edge of the artificial intraocular lens in order to secure the intraocular pseudophakic contact lens to the artificial intraocular lens.
INTRAOCULAR LENS FOR IMPLANTATION IN A CILIARY SULCUS OF AN EYE
A foldable intraocular lens, made from a foldable soft material, for implantation in a ciliary sulcus of an eye having an iris, is provided with an optically active lens part having an optical axis and at least four haptics unitary with the optically active lens part and uniformly spaced about a periphery of the optically active lens part.
The optically active lens part having a non-convex rim between any two neighboring haptics being free from surface irregularities that interfere with the iris.
Each haptic comprising a closed loop, and a shoulder connecting the loop with the optically active lens part, the haptic loops being elastically deformable in a plane perpendicular to the optical axis of the optically active lens part in a direction toward the optically active lens part.
