An intraocular lens fixation device including a deformable, medically inert clip that affixes a haptic of an intraocular lens to a patient's iris. A method of affixing an intraocular lens, having haptics, within a patient's eye includes piercing the iris in at least two locations that closely flank a portion of one of the haptics, inserting an arm of a biologically inert deformable clip through each of the piercings in the iris until a distal end of each arm is located on opposing sides of the haptic, and applying a force to each of the arms to deploy the clip by causing the distal ends of the arms to approach each other and substantially surround and constrain both a section of the iris that is between the arms and a portion of the haptic. |
