Abstract
An intraocular lens (IOL) assembly for correcting myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism is provided. The intraocular lens assembly comprises a lens extending along an optical axis between an anterior optical surface and a posterior optical surface. The IOL has a circumferential edge disposed about the optical axis at a junction of anterior and posterior optical surfaces with N haptics, where N is an integer greater than 1. Each haptic extends from an associated portion of the circumferential edge and along an associated haptic axis and extends between end portions joined to the lens at the circumferential edge. Each of the haptics includes M footplates extending symmetrically about its associated haptic axis, where M may be an integer greater than 0. The resultant vaulted structure provides an intraocular lens assembly that, when implanted in the eye, allows accommodation.
