  • Staking anchor for soft IOL
    Patent number: 4894062
    Abstract: An intraocular lens comprising a deformable optic and first and second fixation members. Each of the fixation members has a proximal end portion. First and second elongated anchors are coupled to the proximal end portions of the fixation members, respectively, and the anchors and the proximal end portions are within peripheral regions of the optic so that the anchors can assist in attaching the fixation members to the optic. The anchors are spaced apart so that the deformable optic can be folded to facilitate insertion of the optic through a relatively small incision into the eye.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 2, 1988
    Date of Patent: January 16, 1990
    Assignee: Allergan, Inc.
