ABSTRACT:
An intraocular posterior chamber lens which has two resilient support portions with protruding contact points for seating the lens in the lower groove portion formed by the anterior and posterior capsules of the eye. The lens also includes an upwardly extending stabilizing portion adapted to be positioned posteriorly of the iris of the eye without being seated in the upper groove portion of the eye. The stabilizing portion provides vertical stabilization of the lens in the eye. The lens can be easily implanted in the posterior chamber of the eye and can be easily removed by a surgeon at a later date, if necessary, without substantial damage to the eye.
