Disclosed is a method for the automated transfer of an intraocular lens (1) comprising an optical lens body (10) and two haptics (11) attached to a peripheral edge of the optical lens body (10) and extending outwardly from the peripheral edge of the optical lens body (10). The method comprises the steps of: picking the intraocular lens (1) up at a start location; moving the intraocular lens (1) to a destination location; releasing the intraocular lens (1) at the destination location,
wherein picking the intraocular lens (1) up at the start location comprises gripping the intraocular lens (1) only at the haptics (11) of the intraocular lens (1).

An intraocular device that includes a fluid lens is provided. The fluid lens has an anterior side and posterior side that can be coupled together to form a closed cavity therebetween that can be filled with a liquid material. A channel can be formed in the posterior side that is configured to receive a joining substance that bonds the anterior side to the posterior side and inhibit the unintended spread of the joining substance. A syringe can be extended through a port in the fluid lens to flow liquid material into the closed cavity. Subsequently, a plug can be inserted into the port to prevent the escape of the liquid material.

The present invention relates to an intraocular secondary lens (L) for insertion into the eye other than the lens that is implanted in the eye during cataract surgery so as to change the refractive power and/or to change the direction and shape of the image rays entering the eye in the patient who have undergone cataract surgery and to whom intraocular lenses are inserted. The secondary lens (L) is in a form that can be easily adhered on the primary lens (M) or the capsule (4) in which the primary lens is located and be easily removed from thereto, it has a foldable feature and contains adhesive nanostructures (6) thereon. It can be easily applied to the eye without need for structures such as hole, notch, foot etc. on the primary lens (M) with the invention by means of the nano structures (6) on the secondary lens. Said secondary lens (L) may be in the form of normal refractive, diffractive, accommodative, and toric, trifocal, multifocal, or combinations thereof, or optionally may carry devices with different optical properties.

Prosthetic capsular devices (e.g., bag, bowl, housing, structure, cage, frame) include technology devices such as a computer, virtual reality device, display device, WiFi/internet access device, image receiving device, biometric sensor device, game device, image viewers or senders, GPSs, e-mail devices, combinations thereof, and/or the like. The technology devices can be used in combination with an intraocular lens. The output from the technology device(s) can be fed to the retina of the user to provide a visual image, can be otherwise connected to the user, and/or can be used to control the properties of the intraocular lens or of the prosthetic capsular device. Wearable technology that provides biometric data, such as blood glucose levels, body temperature, electrolyte balance, heart rate, EKG, EEG, intraocular pressure, sensing ciliary muscle contraction for accommodation stimulus, dynamic pupil change and retinal prostheses, combinations thereof, and the like can assist in technology-assisted health care functions.

Methods and systems for performing laser-assisted surgery on an eye form one or more small anchoring capsulotomies in the lens capsule of the eye. The one or more anchoring capsulotomies are configured to accommodate corresponding anchoring features of an intraocular lens and/or to accommodate one or more drug-eluting members. A method for performing laser-assisted eye surgery on an eye having a lens capsule includes forming an anchoring capsulotomy in the lens capsule and coupling an anchoring feature of the intraocular lens with the anchoring capsulotomy. The anchoring capsulotomy is formed by using a laser to incise the lens capsule. The anchoring feature can protrude transverse to a surface of the intraocular lens that interfaces with the lens capsule adjacent to the anchoring capsulotomy.

An intraocular lens configured to provide an extended depth-of-field. The lens includes a virtual aperture, the virtual aperture that includes a plurality of hexagonal micro-structures. A first plurality of light rays incident on an anterior optical surface passes through an optical zone to form an image on a retina when the intraocular lens is implanted in an eye. A second plurality of light rays incident on an anterior virtual aperture surface are dispersed widely downstream from the intraocular lens towards and across the retina, such that the image comprises the extended depth-of-field.

A method of producing an optical device from a volume of a curable composition, includes the following steps: —polymerizing a first portion of the volume by irradiating an external surface of the volume with a light irradiation, thereby increasing a transmittance of the first portion for the light irradiation; —polymerizing a second portion of the volume by irradiating the second portion with the light irradiation through the external surface and the polymerized first portion, wherein the light irradiation has a light intensity varying over the external surface between a first light intensity and a second light intensity distinct from the second light intensity. A corresponding system is also described.
