ABSTRACT:
An intraocular lens implant is provided having an optical lens and lens positioning and supporting haptics one of which has a pair of protrusions between opposite ends of an outer segment of the haptic which protrusions provide spaced discrete focal points of contact intermediate the length of the haptic segment and which cooperate with a broad arc formed by the other haptic for continuous surface-to-surface contact and improved centration and enhanced fixation upon implantation in an eye.
