An accommodating artificial ocular lens (AAOL) device including a lens optic portion connected to a pleated lens haptic portion to provide accommodation of vision of the eye.
摘要:
An accommodating artificial ocular lens (AAOL) device including a moving lens optic portion connected to a lens plate haptic portion. Preferably, the lens optic portion is connected to the lens plate haptic portion by a pair of flexible or resilient transverse oriented lens arm portions to provide or allow for movement of the lens optic portion.
摘要:
A multi-part IOL which is insertable through an opening as small as about 1 mm without deforming the haptic, is described. This IOL may be used in the anterior chamber of the eye for phakic or aphakic lenses. After insertion of the haptic into the eye, any type of lens may be attached, especially by use of cleats. The haptic is a high modulus skeletal frame, and may be assembled with lower modulus material. An eyelet may be provided on the lens allowing a cleat on the haptic to firmly attach to the optic.
摘要:
An aspheric soft intraocular lens, having an optical power surface, which may have multiple radii portions or aspherical portions, as well as spherical portions, intended to replace the crystalline lens of a patient's eye, in particular after a cataract extraction. Such an aspheric soft lens is molded in a coined mold. A pair of core pins, positioned within the mold cavity during the lens forming process, will produce a pair of haptic-mounting holes within the lens. As the lenses are subsequently tumbled to remove flash, indentations will form adjacent to the haptic-mounting holes. These indentations allow for tangential attachment of the haptic to the lens which, in turn, enables maximum flexibility without exceeding the width of the optic.

The pivotable struts of an umbrella-like shunt defect closure device are resiliently biased from a collapsed position to an expanded position by resilient and foldable flat ring sections which extend between the struts when the struts are in their expanded positions but which are folded between the struts when the struts are in their collapsed positions.

摘要:
An intraocular lens injector compresses an intraocular lens by rolling the lens into a tight spiral and injects the compressed lens though a relatively small incision in the eye, approximately 2-3 millimeters in length, resulting from a phacoemulsification procedure. The intraocular lens is inserted into a receiving channel of the injector in an uncompressed state and is urged into a cylindrical passageway. As the intraocular lens advances into the cylindrical passageway, the lens will roll upon itself into a tightly rolled spiral within the confines of the cylindrical passageway. An insertion rod is inserted into an open end of the cylindrical passageway and advances the compressed lens down the passageway. As the lens exits the passageway and enters the eye, the lens will expand back to its uncompressed state.
