  • Patent number: 6749634
    Abstract: An accommodating intraocular implant for locating in the capsular bag, the implant comprising a single piece of elastically deformable material constituting a central lens (1) and at least two haptic portions (2, 4) in the form of radial arms for bearing via their free ends against the equatorial zone of the capsular bag, the free end of each radial arm (2, 4) being fitted with a shoe (6, 7) of substantially toroidal outside surface enabling the implant to bear against the equatorial zone of the bag, the connection between each shoe (6, 7) and the corresponding arm (2, 4) being of the hinge type situated in the vicinity of the posterior edge of the shoe (6, 7) and being formed by a first thin portion (2d, 4d) of the arm, while the connection between each arm and the lens is of the hinge type implemented at the anterior surface of the lens by a second likewise thin portion (2c, 4c) of the arm, the plane (P1) containing the first thin portions being situated behind the plane (P2) containing the second thin port
