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.

The present invention relates to a holding device for holding an optical implant on a wall area in an eye interior of an eye, comprising at least one retaining component, by which a contact pressure can be exerted on the wall area and thereby the at least one retaining component can be supported on the wall area. Therein, the at least one retaining component has at least one protrusion region, from which at least one protrusion element extends away, which is designed to, when the contact pressure is exerted, penetrate at least regionally into a wall area tissue of the wall area and/or to exert punctiform pressure on the wall area. The invention further relates to an optical device.

The present disclosure provides an intralocular-lens (IOL) or ophthalmic device including an optic and at least one haptic, at least a portion of which is formed from a photoresponsive shape memory polymer network, such as a polydomain azo liquid crystalline polymer network (PD-LCN). The present disclosure further provides systems and methods for adjusting the position of such an IOL or other ophthalmic device using polarized laser radiation.

Embodiments disclosed herein generally relate to a stabilized intraocular drug delivery system for implantation into an eye of a subject. The system can include an intraocular lens (IOL) assembly and a drug delivery component. The IOL assembly can include a lens and a haptic. The haptic can include an outer end, an inner end opposite the outer end, a retention tab at the inner end, and a connection tab positioned between the outer end and the inner end and adjoining the lens. The drug delivery component can include at least one therapeutic agent and a fixation portion having an opening to receive the haptic and secure the drug delivery component to the IOL assembly. The fixation portion of the drug delivery component can be secured to the connection tab of the haptic such that the retention tab inhibits movement of the drug delivery component relative to the IOL assembly.

An intraocular lens, instrument for insertion thereof, assembly of lens and instrument, and method for manufacture of such a lens. The lens includes an optical element of a flexible optical material and provided with a substantially circular periphery; and at least one haptic element provided with a haptic form-locking element. The optical element and the at least one haptic element with the haptic form-locking element are mutually connected by connection of the haptic element to the optical material.

An intraocular lens system may include a base that may include an annular body, an opening extending through the annular body in an axial direction of the annular body, and a recess extending circumferentially about the opening. The system also may include a lens that may be insertable into and removable from the recess. The lens may include a central optic, a first tab protruding radially away from the central optic, and a second tab protruding radially away from the central optic. The second tab may be more resistant to compression in a radial direction than the first tab. The first tab may include a first arm protruding radially away from the central optic, a second arm protruding radially away from the central optic and extending away from the first arm, and a third arm extending from the first arm to the second arm. Movement of one or more of the first, second, and third arms may result in deformation of the first tab.

An ophthalmic lens includes an optic comprising an anterior surface, a posterior surface, and an optic edge extending between the anterior surface and the posterior surface, the optic having an optical axis. The ophthalmic lens further includes a plurality of haptics extending from a periphery of the optic, each of the plurality of haptics including a gusset region, a distal region, and an elbow region connecting the gusset region to the distal region. The gusset region of each of the plurality of haptics extends from the periphery of the optic and spans a portion of the periphery of the optic. In addition, the gusset region of each of the plurality of haptics monotonically increases in thickness with increased distance from the periphery of the optic, while the distal region of each of the plurality of haptics monotonically decreases in thickness with increased distance from the elbow region.

An ophthalmic device includes an optic including an optic axis and a closed-loop haptic structure coupled to the optic via a frame surrounding the optic, the closed-loop haptic structure including a closed loop extending from first and second attachment points to the frame. The closed loop includes a first hinge and a second hinge. The first hinge has a first section having a first component extending in a first angular direction, a second section having a second component extending in a second angular direction opposite to the first angular direction, and a first connecting section between the first section and the second section. The second hinge has a third section having a third component extending in the second angular direction, a fourth section having a fourth component extending in the first angular direction, the fourth section being connected to the second section to form the closed loop.
