ACCOMMODATING, REDUCED ADD POWER MULTIFOCAL INTRAOCULAR LENSES

摘要

An intraocular lens for implantation in an eye of a patient includes amultifocal optic (12) and a movement assembly (14). The optic has a maximumadd power which is less than the add power required for full near vision for apseudophakic eye. The movement assembly is coupled to the optic (12) and isadapted to cooperation with the eye of the patient to effect accommodatingmovement of the optic in the eye. Lens systems including two optic and twomovement assemblies are also provided. The intraocular lenses and lens systemsare particularly useful when implanted in the eyes of a patient after removalof the natural lenses.
