Abstract: An accommodating intraocular lens, for use in an eye, is made from flexible, bio-compatible lens body material surrounding a closed and sealed lens cavity which is filled with bio-compatible optical liquid. The optical liquid has a refractive index sufficiently high to, in cooperation with the ciliary muscle and accommodation of the lens body. focus light, incident on the eye, on the retina, and thus to provide accommodation. Connecting structure of the lens is interfaced with the ciliary muscle of the eve. The pressure expressed by the ciliary muscle, during the accommodative effort, is received by the connecting structure as a pushing force, and is transferred, as a pushing force, to the lens body, thus to change the radius of curvature of the anterior body member and/or the posterior body member, thus providing smooth focusing, including from far distance in the relaxed state to near distance in the accommodative state.

Abstract: An accommodating intraocular lens, for use in an eye, is made from flexible, optionally elastic, bio-compatible lens body material surrounding a closed and sealed lens cavity. One or more compressible struts is in the cavity. The cavity is filled with bio-compatible optical liquid. The optical liquid has a refractive index sufficiently high to, in cooperation with the ciliary muscle and the compressible strut, focus light, incident on the eye, on the retina, thus to provide accommodation. The curvature of the surface of the lens is deformable, by the forces expressed by the ciliary body and the strut, thus to change the radius of curvature of the anterior body member and/or the posterior body member, thus providing focusing, including from relatively farther distance in the relaxed state to relatively nearer distance in the accommodative state.

Abstract: An accommodating intraocular lens, for use in an eye, is made from flexible, optionally elastic, bio-compatible lens body material surrounding a s closed and sealed lens cavity which is filled with bio-compatible optical liquid, optionally a gel. The optical liquid has a refractive index sufficiently high to, in cooperation with the ciliary muscle, focus light, incident on the eye, on the retina, and to provide accommodation. The curvature of the front surface of the lens is deformable, by the pressure expressed by the ciliary body during the to accommodative effort, thus to change the radius of curvature of the anterior body member and/or the posterior body member, thus providing smooth focusing, including from far distance in the relaxed state to near distance of less than 50 centimeters in the accommodative state.

Abstract: An eyelid opener is useful for opening a person's eye in order to dispense an ophthalmic fluid into the eye. The eyelid opener comprises a collar having internal lobes arranged to enable the collar to be screwed onto the threads of an ophthalmic bottle. A shoulder extends across the collar and limits the engagement of the collar on the bottle threads. The bottle tip passes through a hole in the shoulder. To the collar are joined a pair of flexible wings. The two wings terminate in respective flanges sized and shaped to conform to substantially the length of the exteriors of the human eyelids. The wings can be squeezed together and placed on the eyelids. Releasing the wings causing them to return to their undeflected configurations and thereby open the eye. Then a drop of fluid in the bottle can be dispensed into the open eye.
