ABSTRACT:
A method of correcting aphakic conditions in human eyes and a novel intraocular lens structure for accomplishing such are disclosed wherein the lens structure has a light focusing lens body with oppositely disposed support members for supporting the lens structure upon implantation in the eye. The oppositely disposed support members contact natural regions of the eye and position the optical axis of the light focusing lens at a point that is offset from the geometric center axis of the cornea whereby the optical axis corresponds with and is aligned with the pupillary axis of the eye.
