<p>An intraocular lens (20) having an optic portion (22) and a plurality of fixation members (24a-d) coupled thereto. The optic portion (22) includes an optic (26) and a pair of outwardly extending flanges (28). The fixation members are relatively more rigid than the optic and attach to the flanges. The flanges provide lines of force transmission between pairs of fixation members so that compressive forces are not transmitted through the optic, therefore reducing vaulting. The fixation members may be bonded or mated to the flanges. A bridge (74) between two opposed fixation members may be provided to form a fixation system, the bridges being attached to the flanges.</p> |
