An attachment plate for a haptics system for retaining an intraocular lens in a human eye having a visual axis and including a sclera of tough connective tissue, and an annular ciliary sulcus. The haptics system includes a longitudinal axis intended to be co-directional with the human eye's visual axis, a main body with at least two elongated haptics extending therefrom in opposite directions in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. Each of the elongated haptics has an attachment plate including (1) at least two pointed puncturing members, (2) each puncturing member terminating at a tip for penetrating the tough connective tissue of the human eye's sclera for self-anchoring implantation of the haptics system in the human eye's annular ciliary sulcus at least two spaced apart stationary anchor points, (3) the at least two pointed puncturing members having a minimum tip separation between their tips of at least 1 mm in said plane perpendicular to said longitudinal axis.
