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.

An accommodating intraocular lens (AIOL) for implantation within a capsular bag of a patient's eye comprises first and second components coupled together to define an inner fluid chamber and an outer fluid reservoir. The inner region of the AIOL provides optical power with one or more of the shaped fluid within the inner fluid chamber or the shape of the first or second components. The fluid reservoir comprises a bellows region with one or more folds of the bellows extending circumferentially around an optical axis of the eye. The bellows engages the lens capsule, and a compliant fold region between the inner and outer bellows portions allows the profile of the AIOL to deflect when the eye accommodates for near vision. Fluid transfers between the inner fluid chamber and the outer fluid reservoir to provide optical power changes when the eye accommodates.

An ophthalmic assembly for implantation in an anterior chamber of an eye of a patient to provide accommodation of the vision to said patient comprises a variable-focus lens and an actuator for modifying the focal length of the variable-focus lens. The ophthalmic assembly comprises an autofocus system configured to determine a distance parameter of an object that the patient's eye is looking at; a signal processing unit arranged to convert said distance parameter into a focal length value of the variable-focus lens; and an actuator control unit configured to control the actuator as a function of the focal length value received from said signal processing unit. A method for accommodating the vision of a patient using an opthamalic assembly is also disclosed.

Lens support structure for supporting an intraocular lens (IOL) is provided, the lens support structure being configured and operable to be securely implanted in a lens capsule of a human eye and hold the IOL in one of a plurality of positions, the support structure comprising a repositioning assembly configured and operable to be activated remotely by a remote energy source and controllably displace the IOL in at least one of directions along and around an optical axis of the IOL, thereby enabling moving the IOL between the plurality of positions. Lens control system is also provided, the control system comprising the lens support structure and a source energy for activating parts thereof. Intraocular lens system is also provided, the system comprising the lens support structure and a lens integrated therein.

A modular IOL system including intraocular primary and secondary components, which, when combined, form an intraocular optical correction device, wherein the secondary component is placed on the primary component within the perimeter of the capsulorhexis, thus avoiding the need to touch or otherwise manipulate the capsular bag. The secondary component may be manipulated, removed, and/or exchanged for a different secondary component for correction or modification of the optical result, on an intra-operative or post-operative basis, without the need to remove the primary component and without the need to manipulate the capsular bag. The primary component may have haptics extending therefrom for centration in the capsular bag, and the secondary component may exclude haptics, relying instead on attachment to the primary component for stability. Such attachment may include actuatable interlocking members.

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.

A method for producing an accommodative intraocular lens includes providing first and second components and a support body with an interior space and open to the top, fastening the first component to the support body, generating pressure which is higher in the exterior space than in the interior space such that the first component deforms downward, producing an adhesive surface on the upper side of the first component and/or on the second component, applying a liquid to the first component from above into the latter's downwardly deformed region, the liquid at no time contacting the adhesive surface, fastening the second component to the first component with the adhesive surface, as a result of which the accommodative intraocular lens is formed and the liquid is encapsulated with the first component and the second component in a cavity arranged in the interior of the intraocular lens.

A two-part accommodating intraocular lens (IOL) device for implantation in a capsular bag of a patient's eye. The IOL device includes a primary lens assembly and a power changing lens. The primary lens assembly includes a fixed lens and a peripherally disposed centration member. The centration member has a circumferential distal edge and a first coupling surface adjacent the circumferential distal edge. The power changing lens has an enclosed, fluid- or gel-filled lens cavity and haptic system disposed peripherally of the lens cavity. The haptic system has a peripheral engaging edge configured to contact the capsular bag and a second coupling surface. The first and second coupling surfaces are in sliding contact with one another to permit movement of the power changing lens relative to the primary lens assembly and also to maintain a spaced relationship between the fixed lens and the lens cavity during radial compression of the power changing lens.

Exemplary light control devices and methods provide a regional variation of visual information and sampling (“V-VIS”) of an ocular field of view that improves or stabilizes vision, ameliorates a visual symptom, reduces the rate of vision loss, or reduces the progression of an ophthalmic or neurologic condition, disease, injury or disorder. The V-VIS devices and methods generate a moving aperture effect anterior to a retina that samples and delivers to the retina environmental light from an ocular field of view at a sampling rate between 50 hertz and 50 kilohertz. Certain of these V-VIS devices and methods may be combined with augmented or virtual reality, vision measurement, vision monitoring, or other therapies including, but not limited to, pharmacological, gene, retinal replacement and stem cell therapies.
