摘要:
An accommodating intraocular lens (AIOL) includes an optic adapted to produce a trapezoidal phase shift and a plurality of haptics. Each haptic extends from a haptic-optic junction to at least one transverse arm contacting a capsular bag of the eye, and each haptic has sufficient length and rigidity to stretch a capsular bag of the eye to contact ciliary muscles of the eye. The haptic-optic junctions vault the optic forward relative to the haptics and compression of the haptics by the ciliary muscles moves the anterior optic forward. A combined accommodative power produced by the motion of the anterior optic and the trapezoidal phase shift is at least 0.5 Diopters.

摘要:
In one aspect, the present invention provides an intraocular lens (IOL), which comprises at least two optics disposed in tandem along an optical axis, and an accommodative mechanism that is coupled to at least one of the optics and is adapted to adjust a combined optical power of the optics in response to natural accommodative forces of an eye in which the optics are implanted so as to provide accommodation. At least one of the optics has a surface characterized by a first refractive region, a second refractive region and transition region therebetween, where an optical phase shift of incident light having a design wavelength (e.g., 550 nm) across the transition region corresponds to a non-integer fraction of that wavelength.

In one aspect, the present invention provides an ophthalmic lens (e.g., an IOL) that includes an optic having an anterior surface and a posterior surface disposed about an optical axis. At least one of the surfaces (e.g., the anterior surface) has a profile characterized by superposition of a base profile and an auxiliary profile. The auxiliary profile can include an inner region, an outer region and a transition region between the inner and the outer regions, where an optical path difference across the transition region (i.e., the optical path difference between the inner and the outer radial boundaries of the transition region) corresponds to a non-integer fraction (e.g., ½) of a design wavelength (e.g., a wavelength of about 550 nm).

In one aspect, the present invention provides a method of correcting vision, which comprises determining a residual accommodation exhibited by a natural, crystalline lens of an eye, and selecting a multifocal intraocular lens (IOL), which exhibits a far-focus optical power (e.g., in a range of about −15 to about +50 Diopters (D)) and an add power (e.g., in a range of about 1 D to about 4 D), for implantation in the eye while retaining the natural lens. The add power of the IOL is selected as a function of the residual accommodation such that a combination of the IOL and the natural lens provides a visual contrast greater than about 10% at a spatial frequency of about 20 cycles/degree for viewing objects at a distance greater than about 30 cm from the eye.

In one aspect, the present invention provides an intraocular lens that includes a posterior optic and anterior optic. The optics have different chromatic dispersions adapted to cooperatively provide compensation for natural chromatic aberrations of the eye over a wavelength range of interest, e.g., over a wavelength range of about 400 nm to about 700 nm.
摘要:
The present invention is generally directed to multi-surface and/or multi-element intraocular lenses (IOLs) in which a plurality of surfaces are adapted to provide compensation for a variety of aberrations, and in particular, for off-axis aberrations such as coma or spherical aberration. In one aspect, an intraocular lens is disclosed that includes a posterior optic and an anterior optic. One optic provides compensation for a radially symmetric aberration and the other provides compensation for a radially asymmetric aberration.
摘要:
In one aspect, the present invention provides a method of designing an intraocular lens (IOL) to address variations of at least one ocular parameter in a population of patient eyes. The method can include establishing at least one eye model in which the ocular parameter can be varied over a range exhibited by the population. The eye model can be employed to evaluate a plurality of IOL designs in correcting visual acuity for eyes in the patient population. An IOL design that provides a best fit for visual performance over at least a portion of the parameter range can then be selected.
