ABSTRACT:
An intraocular lens suitable for use in the posterior chamber of a human eye with position-fixation legs suitable for individually making contact with the ciliary sulcus of the eye at two spaced points thereof. The legs preferably are of polymethylmethacrylate with portions extending counterclockwise and clockwise with respect to the optic to provide sufficient resilience of the free end portion of each leg with respect to the optic to prevent damage to the ciliary sulcus.
