ABSTRACT:
An improved surgically replaceable intraocular lens having a generally round lens to which are attached a pair of symmetrical voluted loop members secured to opposite sides of the periphery of lens. Each loop member is comprised of a continuous strand of material having opposite terminal ends secured to the lens and curved outwardly from and substantially parallel to the periphery of the lens; its very distal end curling inwardly to provide a reversed curve or scrolled portion. The greatest width of each loop member is between the points of securement of the terminal ends to the lens, and the loop members are displaced and offset with respect to the posterior plane of the lens.
