20090248153 | Stable Anterior Chamber Phakic Lenses - An anterior chamber phakic lens made from a foldable, highly biocompatible material that has a very low haptic compression force and low axial displacement, yet is stable in the anterior chamber. | 10-01-2009 |
20100191329 | INTRAOCULAR IMPLANTS AND METHODS AND KITS THEREFOR - Devices, methods and kits are described for reducing intraocular pressure. The devices include a support that is implantable within Schlemm's canal and maintains the patency of the canal without substantially interfering with transmural fluid flow across the canal. The devices utilize the natural drainage process of the eye and can be implanted with minimal trauma to the eye. Kits include a support and an introducer for implanting the support within Schlemm's canal. Methods include implanting a support within Schlemm's canal, wherein the support is capable of maintaining the patency of the canal without substantial interference with transmural fluid flow across the canal. | 07-29-2010 |
20110098812 | ATTACHMENT PLATE FOR ACCOMMODATING INTRAOCULAR LENS (AIOL) - An attachment plate for a haptics system for retaining an intraocular lens in a human eye having a visual axis and including a sclera of tough connective tissue, and an annular ciliary sulcus. The haptics system includes a longitudinal axis intended to be co-directional with the human eye's visual axis, a main body with at least two elongated haptics extending therefrom in opposite directions in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. Each of the elongated haptics has an attachment plate including (1) at least two pointed puncturing members, (2) each puncturing member terminating at a tip for penetrating the tough connective tissue of the human eye's sclera for self-anchoring implantation of the haptics system in the human eye's annular ciliary sulcus at least two spaced apart stationary anchor points, (3) the at least two pointed puncturing members having a minimum tip separation between their tips of at least 1 mm in said plane perpendicular to said longitudinal axis. | 04-28-2011 |
20110313524 | Vitreous Compressing Plate Haptic - A plate haptic is used with an intraocular lens optic displaceable in response to vitreous pressure changes. The plate haptic comprises: a plurality of opposing lateral portions; a distal portion having a plurality of opposing projections extending substantially laterally therefrom; and a proximal portion comprising a strap across which is a hinge connecting the lens optic to the haptic. The intersection of the proximal portion with each lateral portion forms a plurality of appendages, or paddles, to partially surround the optic. The appendages, projections, and hinged straps combine to substantially aid displacement of the lens optic in response to changes in vitreous pressure. | 12-22-2011 |
20110313525 | Tilt Stabilizing Accommodating Intraocular Lens - An intraocular lens for insertion into a capsular bag of an eye. A plurality of flexible connecting members couples a lens optic to a pair of opposing of plate haptics. The coupling members stabilize the optic with respect to the haptics. The coupling members are spaced apart straps having grooves that increase lens response to changes in vitreous pressure. | 12-22-2011 |
20110313526 | Semi-Rigid Framework For A Plate Haptic Accommodating Intraocular Lens - A plate haptic for an accommodating intraocular lens. The plate haptic has a haptic body that is substantially rigid in a longitudinal direction and substantially flexible in a transverse direction. A chassis is integral to the haptic body. The chassis causes the haptic body to be substantially more rigid in a longitudinal direction than in a transverse direction. | 12-22-2011 |
20120310344 | Biased accommodating intraocular lens - An accommodating intraocular lens has a lens optic that is coupled to at least one haptic and is anteriorly biased with respect thereto. | 12-06-2012 |
20130331938 | INTRAOCULAR IMPLANT - An intraocular implant for placement in the eye, e.g. as part of a cataract operation or crystalline lens extraction refractive operation, has at a peripheral portion of the implant a groove which engages with the lip of a single capsulotomy only formed in the lens capsule of the eye. The implant will normally be a lens, but may instead be a bung or plug for occluding an opening made in the capsule. The groove may be a continuous groove around the periphery of the implant, or there may be a series of individual spaced-apart grooves formed as projections protruding from the periphery. Instead of a single groove, a pair of axially spaced-apart grooves may be provided, which engage with respective capsulotomies formed in an anterior and a posterior part of the capsule. The posterior groove is preferably of a smaller mean diameter than the anterior groove | 12-12-2013 |
20150012088 | SEMI-RIGID FRAMEWORK FOR A PLATE HAPTIC ACCOMMODATING INTRAOCULAR LENS - A plate haptic for an accommodating intraocular lens. The plate haptic has a haptic body that is substantially rigid in a longitudinal direction and substantially flexible in a transverse direction. A chassis is integral to the haptic body. The chassis causes the haptic body to be substantially more rigid in a longitudinal direction than in a transverse direction. | 01-08-2015 |
20150305856 | INTRAOCULAR IMPLANT, INTRAOCULAR IMPLANT SET AND INTRAOCULAR LENS - Provided are an intraocular implant, an intraocular implant set, and an intraocular lens in which the intraocular lens is easily replaced compared to the related art. | 10-29-2015 |
