Abstract: A lens for use in an intraocular lens system for treating age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the lens including an anterior surface, a posterior surface, and a plurality of haptics configured to align the anterior light-converging intraocular lens with an optical axis of the eye. The plurality of haptics may have a symmetrical design and comprising ciliary-sulcus-engaging surfaces configure to position the lens within in a ciliary sulcus of an eye. At least one of the anterior surface and the posterior surface may be rendered as aspherical surfaces selected to induce spherical aberration while minimizing optical aberration and thereby provide for a continuum of retinal images to be focused at an area macula of a retina of the eye between two retinal eccentricities.
