Patent number: 10368979Abstract: An accommodating intraocular lens includes an optic portion a haptic portion and a backstop. The optic portion of the lens includes an actuator that deflects a lens element to alter the optical power of the lens responsive to forces applied to the haptic portion of the lens by contraction of the ciliary muscles. Forces applied to the haptic portion may result in fluid displacements from or to the haptic portion from the actuator. The backstop provides support to the haptic so that bulk translation of the haptic is prevented in response to the forces applied by the capsular sac.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2018Date of Patent: August 6, 2019Assignee: PowerVision, Inc.Inventors: John A Scholl, Terah Whiting Smiley, David John Smith, Denise Horrilleno Burns, Barry Cheskin

Patent number: 10045844Abstract: Methods of adjusting an intraocular lens after implantation. In some embodiments the methods include positioning an accommodating intraocular lens within an eye, the intraocular lens comprising an optic portion in fluid communication with a peripheral chamber, wherein movement of a fluid between the peripheral chamber and the optic portion in response to ciliary muscle movement changes the optical power of the lens, and reducing a power of the intraocular lens by causing the fluid to move between the optic portion and the peripheral chamber, wherein the reduction in power of the intraocular lens is not in response to ciliary muscle movement, and wherein the positioning step occurs prior to reducing the power.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2008Date of Patent: August 14, 2018Assignee: PowerVision, Inc.Inventors: Terah Whiting Smiley, John H. Shadduck, Victor C. Esch, John A. Scholl, Claudio Argento, Barry Cheskin, David John Smith, Denise H. Burns

Publication number: 20130268070Abstract: An accommodating intraocular lens is provided in which a deflectable lens element is anchored to a substrate along its optical axis to define a fluid filled space. Fluid-filled haptics disposed in fluid communication with the space vary the fluid volume in the space responsive to forces applied by the ciliary muscles, thereby causing the periphery of the lens element to deflect relative to the substrate and changing the optical power of the intraocular lens.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 4, 2013Publication date: October 10, 2013Inventors: Victor Esch, John Scholl, Terry Smiley, Patrick Myall, Bill Evans, Barry Cheskin, Henry Wu
