Posterior chamber phakic lens

摘要

A posterior chamber phakic lens made from a foldable, highly biocompatible material. The lens has a generally circular optic and integrally formed, closed-loop haptics. The haptics project posteriorly from the optic and have generally scalloped outer edges when viewed in plan view. Such a construction helps to avoid pupillary blockage and allows for improved aqueous flow around the natural lens.
