An accommodative intraocular lens includes a first lens part, a haptic, and a flexible membrane. The flexible membrane is arranged adjacent to a distal optical body surface, delimits a cavity together with the distal optical body surface and is transparent to light. A second lens part has a hollow cylinder coupled releasably to the first lens part, as a result of which the intraocular lens can be brought into a coupling state in which the second lens part is arranged on a distal side of the first lens part and the hollow cylinder is configured to deform the membrane by a longitudinal displacement of the hollow cylinder parallel to the optical axis. The hollow cylinder has on its exterior an outer face and a bearing face arranged adjacent to a proximal end of the outer face and encloses, with the outer face, an angle of less than 180°.

An intraocular lens (IOL) for implantation within a capsular bag of a patient's eye comprises an optical structure and a haptic structure. The optical structure comprises a planar member, a plano convex member, and a fluid optical element defined between the planar member and the plano convex member. The fluid optical element has an optical power. The haptic structure couples the planar member and the plano convex member together at a peripheral portion of the optical structure. The haptic structure comprises a fluid reservoir in fluid communication with the fluid optical element and a peripheral structure for interfacing to the lens capsule. Shape changes of the lens capsule cause one or more of volume or shape changes to the fluid optical element in correspondence to deformations in the planar member to modify the optical power of the fluid optical element.

A modular intraocular lens (IOL) with a ring configured to prevent glare artifacts. The ring includes a flange on the posterior rim, in which an anterior surface on the flange has a first profile and a posterior surface of the flange has a second profile non-parallel with the first profile. Non-parallel surfaces of the flange can be configured to defocus light transmitted at off-axis angles through an optic and the flange.

Methods for treating presbyopia in a patient's eye involve inducing spherical aberration in a central area of the pupil. In embodiments, refractive properties of an eye are measured to obtain a baseline refractive correction. A lens for wearing on the eye is provided, or an optical device is implanted in the eye, or corneal tissue is removed to create spherical aberration or a distribution of spherical aberrations beyond the baseline refractive correction in the central area of the pupil. The central area of the pupil has a diameter of between 1.5 mm and 4.0 mm and has negligible spherical aberration without the treatment.

An intra-ocular lens having an air-filled collapsible cavity situated between two optical elements wherein air is transferred from optical regions of the collapsible cavity to its peripheral haptic regions after being compressed by external force.

An accommodating intraocular lens device for treatment of an eye having a lens body; internal support; stabilization system; and force translation arm. The lens body includes an accommodating membrane, an annular element, a static element, and a fixed volume of optical fluid filling a sealed chamber of the lens body. The annular element coupled to the perimeter of the accommodating membrane has a shape deformation membrane configured to undergo displacement relative to the perimeter region. The sealed chamber is formed by inner surfaces of the accommodating membrane, shape deformation membrane, and static element. The force translation arm has a first end operatively coupled to the shape deformation membrane and a free end available and configured to engage a ciliary structure of the eye. The force translation arm is moveable relative to the lens body to cause inward movement of the shape deformation membrane. Related methods, devices, and systems are provided.

Apparatuses, systems and methods for providing improved ophthalmic lenses, particularly intraocular lenses (IOLs), include features for reducing dysphotopsia effects, such as haloes and glare. Exemplary ophthalmic lenses may include a central zone with a first set of two echelettes arranged around the optical axis, the first set having a profile in r-squared space. A middle zone includes a second set of two echelettes arranged around the optical axis, the second set having a profile in r-squared space that is different than the profile of the first set. A peripheral zone includes a third set of two echelettes arranged around the optical axis, the third set having a profile in r-squared space that is different than the profile of the first set and the profile of the second set, the third set being repeated in series on the peripheral zone.

An intraocular lens (IOL) with a shape-changing optic is provided. The shape-changing optic includes an elastic anterior face located anterior to the equator. The anterior face has an anterior surface, a posterior surface, and a periphery. The shape-changing optic also includes a posterior face having an anterior surface, a posterior surface, and a periphery. An elastic side wall can extend across the equator and extend from the anterior face to the posterior face. A chamber can be located between the anterior face and the posterior face. The IOL can further include at least one haptic extending from the periphery of the anterior face, the periphery of the posterior face, or both.

A halosilicone oil in the form of an uncrosslinked terpolymer represented by the following Formula (I):

##STR00001##

is disclosed, wherein at least one block forming component includes a halogenated, preferably fluorinated, substituent such as 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl or 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl. In some implementations, at least one block forming component also includes an aryl group, such as phenyl, that raises the refractive index of the polymer. In some implementations, the halosilicone oil is incorporated into an intraocular lens.

An intraocular lens includes an optical portion and a support portion. The optical portion has an anterior optical plate portion and a posterior optical plate portion arranged on the anterior and posterior sides of the lens capsule. An optical body portion is arranged between the anterior optical plate portion and the posterior optical plate portion. The support portion has an outer support plate portion. An anterior support plate portion extends inwardly from an anterior end portion of the outer support plate portion and connects to a peripheral portion of an anterior optical plate portion of optical portion. A posterior support plate portion extends inwardly from a posterior end portion of the outer support plate portion and connects to a peripheral portion of a posterior optical plate portion of the optical portion. The anterior support plate portion and the posterior support plate portion extend inward and rearward or inward and forward.
