Systems, methods, and devices for inserting an intraocular lens (IOL) assembly into an eye may be provided. An example optic management system may include a housing having a first end and a second end and a first side extending between the first end and the second end. The housing may include a cavity formed in the first side of the housing and configured to accommodate an intraocular lens, wherein the cavity comprises a first end portion, a second end portion, and a central portion. The housing may further include a bore formed in the housing, wherein a first portion of the bore extends from the first end to the cavity. The haptic optic management system may further include a ceiling disposed on the first side of the housing. The haptic optic management system may further include arms pivotably coupled to the housing in the cavity.

Devices to support and position an intraocular lens within the eye and methods of use

Related tools, systems, and methods are provided.

Exchangeable lens platform
11759311 · 2023-09-19 ·

An exchangeable lens platform (ELP) comprises a horseshoe-shaped ring structure, which has a memory strip incorporated therein, into which the haptic end components of the intraocular lens (IOL) can engage diametrically opposite portions of the ring structure. In this manner, the exchangeable lens platform (ELP) can not only be opened or expanded so as to be disposed within any sized capsular bag in a secure and stabilized manner, but diametrically opposite portions of the exchangeable lens platform (ELP) can effectively fold upon themselves such that the exchangeable lens platform (ELP) will effectively be partially folded in half such that the diametrically opposite folded portions of the exchangeable lens platform (ELP) can effectively engage diametrically opposed internal wall portions of the fornix of the capsular bag so as to permit the intraocular lens (IOL) to then be properly centered, oriented, stabilized, and secured within the eye. In addition, since the haptic components of the intraocular lens (IOL) are disposed upon the exchangeable lens platform (ELP) and do not engage internal peripheral wall portions of the capsular bag, the intraocular lens (IOL) can be removed and replaced with another intraocular lens (IOL).

POSTERIOR CHAMBER PHAKIC INTRAOCULAR LENS

DEVICES TO SUPPORT AND POSITION AN INTRAOCULAR LENS WITHIN THE EYE AND METHODS OF USE
20220000605 · 2022-01-06 ·

An implantable device for supporting an artificial intraocular lens in an eye having an anterior segment of a capsular bag, an iris, and a sclera. The device includes a posterior platform having an anterior-facing surface and an inner wall defining, at least in part, a central aperture. When the device is implanted in the eye, light passes through the intraocular lens and the central aperture of the posterior platform towards the retina. The device includes at least one awning positioned over the anterior-facing surface of the posterior platform forming at least one recess anterior to the posterior platform. The device is configured to be deployed in the eye posterior of the iris so that no portion of the device rests in contact with the sclera after implantation. Related tools, systems, and methods are provided.

Prosthetic capsular devices, systems, and methods

A prosthetic capsular device configured to be inserted in an eye includes a housing structure and a ring structure.
