Flexible intraocular lens with multiple Young's moduli

摘要

The method and system provide an ophthalmic instrument (100) that includes an optical system (110) and a haptic (120). The optical system includes at least one optical material having a first Young's modulus. The haptic is connected to the optical system. The haptic includes at least a second Young's modulus greater than the first Young's modulus and less than 1.8 GPa. Thus, haptics are harder than optics, but more flexible than materials such as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA).
