ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to an intraocular lens having a lens body which includes a primary portion and secondary portions. The secondary portions are connected to the primary portion with connect members. The secondary portions may be folded with respect to the primary portion so that a smaller perimeter for the lens body is possible during lens insertion into the eye thereby requiring a smaller incision in the cornea than is otherwise possible.
