Some embodiments provide a copolymer comprising: an acrylate recurring unit and an optionally substituted vinylaryl recurring unit, wherein a portion of at least one of the recurring units comprises a vinyldialkylsiloxy pendant group. The copolymers may be useful as soft acrylic haptics for intraocular lenses. Some embodiments further relate to intraocular lenses having a hydrophobic soft acrylic optic and a silicone haptic, such as a dual optic accommodative lens a having hydrophobic soft acrylic anterior and posterior optic bodies and a silicone haptic. Related copolymeric composite materials as well as additional embodiments of intraocular lenses, are also described herein.
