ABSTRACT:
An intraocular lens that includes an optical lens body and haptics extending outwardly from the optical lens, said haptics extending at about a zero degree of angulation with respect to the lens body when not under compression and at least one haptic having at least one segment which is formed so that upon compression of the haptics under conditions similar to implantation said at least one segment will create a torque which causes the lens to vault in only one predetermined direction and to a predetermined angulation greater than zero.
