Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to holders for protecting intraocular lenses and methods of use. The holder includes a posterior wall and an annular wall extending anteriorly from the posterior wall and having an anterior edge. An internal space is defined by the posterior wall and the annular wall. The internal space is sized to receive a lens body of the intraocular lens. The holder also includes a locking feature configured to secure the intraocular lens. At least a portion of the locking feature is anterior to the intraocular lens when positioned in the holder.
Abstract:
An intraocular lens is provided that includes a refractive element and a mask. The refractive element has a first power in a first meridian and a second power greater than the first power in a second meridian. A magnitude of the first and second powers and a location of the first and second meridians are configured to correct astigmatism in a human eye. The mask is configured to block a substantial portion of light from passing through an annular region thereof and to permit a substantial portion of light to pass through a central aperture thereof to enhance an astigmatism correction rotational misplacement range and depth of focus.
Abstract:
Intraocular implants and methods of making intraocular implants are disclosed. The intraocular implant can include a mask adapted to increase depth of focus. The method of manufacturing the implant can include filling an annular mask-forming trough with an opaque mask material and adding an optically transmissive optic material over the opaque mask material.

Abstract:
Intraocular implants and methods of making intraocular implants are provided. The intraocular implant can include a lens body having a lens material and a mask having a mask material. The lens body can be secured to the mask. The mask material can include a modulus of elasticity that is greater than or equal to a modulus of elasticity of the lens material.

Abstract:
Intraocular implants and methods of forming intraocular implants are described herein. The intraocular implant can include a powered optic and a lens holder. The optic can be mechanically coupled to an inner periphery of the lens holder to form the intraocular implant. A portion of the lens holder can include a mask disposed about the optic to increase depth of focus in a human patient.
Abstract:
Intraocular implants and methods of making intraocular implants are provided. The intraocular implant can include a mask adapted to increase depth of focus. The method of manufacturing the implant can include positioning the mask with an aperture on a protruding pin of a positioning mold portion. The protruding pin can be configured to center the mask in the intraocular lens.
