The present disclosure concerns a curvature-changing, accommodative intraocular lens (IOL) for implantation in the capsular bag of a patient's eye. The IOL includes a fluid optic body having a cavity for containing an optical fluid, the cavity at least partially defined by a sidewall extending around the cavity and defining a diameter of the cavity and a deformable optical membrane intersecting the sidewall around a circumference of the sidewall and spanning the diameter of the cavity. The IOL further includes a second optic body spaced a distance apart from the fluid optic body and a plurality of struts extending from the sidewall and coupling the fluid optic body to the second optic body. The struts are configured such that axial compression of the capsular bag causes the struts to deform the sidewall in a manner that increases the diameter of the cavity, modifying a curvature of the deformable optical membrane.

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.

The present disclosure relates to devices, systems, and methods for improving or optimizing peripheral vision. In particular, various IOL designs, as well as IOL implantation locations, are disclosed which improve or optimize peripheral vision.

An intraocular lens comprising a lens optic coupled to at least one haptic and at least one deformable connecting bar positioned between the lens optic and the at least one haptic. The lens is designed to provide uncorrected vision for distance, intermediate and near vision.

An accommodating intraocular lens implant is provided that is shaped so as to be assemblable into an assembled state in situ in a capsular bag of a human eye, and includes an anterior floating lens unit, which comprises an anterior lens; a posterior lens unit, which comprises a posterior lens; an anterior rim; levers, arranged to move the anterior floating lens unit toward and away from the anterior rim, in an anterior-posterior direction; and a circumferential rim, which is attached to the levers. The lens implant is arranged such that in the assemble state: elastic potential energy is stored in the lens implant as a result of deformation of the lens implant during a transition from a fully-accommodated state to a fully-unaccommodated state, and at least 50% of the elastic potential energy stored in the lens implant as the result of the deformation is stored in the circumferential rim.

Described is an accommodating intraocular lens with a bi-convex, bi-aspheric, smooth surfaced optic held inside an anterior annulus via tabs. A second larger diameter annulus is positioned posteriorly and connects via a sloped surface to where the annuluses are at a maximum separation when viewing NEAR objects and minimum separation in the FAR position. The sloped surface is cut into ribbons, tabs and/or other annuluses without pushing the surfaces into the capsule when implanted; therefore, only the anterior and posterior annuluses have a force component against the capsule. The proximal edge of the anterior annulus is anterior to the apex of the anterior surface of the optic. The anterior capsule resting on the annulus leaves space for hydration of the capsule and reduces potential warpage of the optic. The annulus edge is designed to scrape posterior capsular opacification from the capsule.

An intraocular lens adapted to be implanted inside a capsular bag, comprising a peripheral portion comprising an anterior annular portion adapted to engage an anterior capsule portion, the anterior annular portion defining an anterior opening through which an optical axis passes, a posterior annular portion adapted to engage a posterior capsule portion, the anterior and posterior annular portions being adapted to keep the capsular bag open after implantation, and an optic portion disposed within the anterior opening and secured to and radially inward relative to the peripheral portion.

Accommodating intraocular lenses including an optic having an anterior element and a posterior element defining an optic fluid chamber, wherein the optic is aspheric across all powers throughout accommodation or disaccommodation. Intraocular lenses, optionally accommodating, where an optic portion is centered with a midline of a height of the peripheral portion, the height measured in the anterior to posterior direction.

The present invention relates to a first intraocular lens (120) embodiment having a retainer plate (124) with an annular region surrounding a central opening and an optical lens (122) removably attached to the retainer plate within the central opening. Also disclosed is a second intraocular lens embodiment having a retainer plate with a porous or perforated annular region surrounding a central opening. An optical lens (122) is integral with the retainer plate (124) within the central opening. Methods of implanting these intraocular lens (120) embodiments into a patient's eye are disclosed. Also described here are methods of replacing the first intraocular lens embodiment after it has been implanted in a patient's eye.
