Intraocular artificial lens of variable optical power comprises positioning mechanism for positioning optical elements in eye, and adapted to urge optical elements to resting position when driving mechanisms are inactive

摘要

Intraocular artificial lens of variable optical power comprises two optical elements which are shiftable mutually perpendicular to the optical axis, and have such a shape that they exhibit, in combination, different optical powers at different positions; positioning mechanism for positioning the optical elements in the eye; and driving mechanism for driving optical element(s) for executing a movement relatively to the other optical element. The positioning mechanisms are adapted to urge the optical elements to a resting position when the driving mechanisms are inactive. An independent claim is also included for method for manufacturing an intraocular artificial lens comprising at least two optical elements and positioning mechanism to position the optical elements in a capsular bag, comprising connecting both optical elements to the positioning mechanism prior to implantation in the capsular bag.
