Posterior chamber intraocular lens and method of making an opening in a capsule

摘要

A posterior chamber intraocular lens having at least two projections on the rear surface thereof for causing a line of tension in the posterior capsule. If desired, after implantation of the lens the posterior capsule may be perforated with a laser beam transversely to the line of tension, causing the posterior capsule to tear and form an opening to eliminate any cloudiness of the posterior capsule from behind the central region of the lens.
