The present disclosure provides an intraocular 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.

This disclosure provides ophthalmic implants such as sulcus implants which can comprise one or more drug delivery devices. Further provided herein are methods of using the drug delivery ophthalmic devices described herein for implantation into a subject's eye, e.g., into an eye's ciliary sulcus or capsular bag.

An accommodative intraocular lens includes an optic body having an optical power changing structure. There are two supporting structures disposed opposite one another about the optic body, each supporting structure configured to be connected at a distal end to a ciliary body after implantation in an eye of a patient and connected at a proximal end to the optic body. The two supporting structures are a zeroing supporting structure and an actuating supporting structure. The zeroing supporting structure is configured to not change the optical power of the optic body in an installation mode and an operation mode of the accommodative intraocular lens. An actuating supporting structure is configured to not change the optical power of the optic body in the installation mode but is configured to change the optical power of the optic body in the operation mode of the accommodative intraocular lens.

Hybrid Accommodating Intra Ocular Lens (AIOL) assemblages including two discrete component parts in the form of a discrete base member for initial implantation in a vacated capsular bag and a discrete lens unit for subsequent implantation in the vacated capsular bag for anchoring to the discrete base member. The lens unit includes a lens optics having at least two lens haptics radially outwardly extending therefrom. The base member includes a flat circular base member centerpiece having zero optical power.

An intraocular lens includes an optical body having a geometric center point through which a longitudinal axis extends and a second main axis extends as a transverse axis. The transverse axis is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. A flat first and a second haptic body are each adjacent to the optical body. The first and second haptic bodies are arranged point-symmetrically to the geometric center. An outer radius of the intraocular lens about the geometric center and a radial distance from the geometric center to an intersection point of the transverse axis with a circumferential line of the intraocular lens have a ratio to one another from 1:0.5 to 1:0.9. The first haptic body has a recess on the left of the longitudinal axis and another recess on the right thereof. The two recesses each have a length and a width, the length being greater than the width.

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 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 intraocular lens system comprising at least one intraocular lens having an anterior surface and a posterior surface, wherein at least one surface of the lens is aspherical to provide for a continuum of retinal images to be focused at the retina in an area between two retinal eccentricities. The system may include an anterior light-converging intraocular lens 16 for positioning within the eye, the anterior lens having an anterior surface and a posterior surface; and a posterior light-diverging intraocular lens 17 for positioning within the eye posterior to the anterior lens, the posterior lens having an anterior surface and a posterior surface; wherein one or both surfaces of the anterior lens and/or one or both surfaces of the posterior lens are aspherical.
