An accommodating intraocular lens (20) is disclosed that provides vision accommodation in response to contraction of an eye's ciliary muscle (60). This lens comprises a deformable elastic dynamic lens (26) comprising a lensshapinging member (30, 34) in contact with peripheral edge regions of the dynamic lens for enabling compressive deformation thereof for changing the lens surface curvature. Included are an elastically flexible coilmember (32) mounted around the lens-shaping member. A first lens-supporting member (52) has a proximal end region engaging the flexible coil member and a second lenssupporting member (54) has a proximal end region connected to the lens- shaping member. For implantation in the capsular bag of an aphakic eye, both lens-support ing members (52, 54) either attach to the capsular bag or bear directly against opposite regions of the ciliary body. For implatation in the anterior chamber of a phakic eye the first lens-supporting member (52) bears directly against the cil iary body the second one (54) attaching the lens (20) to the iris (66).
