ABSTRACT:
An intraocular lens comprising an elongated optic and first and second glare-reducing sections extending along the elongated sides of the optic. The glare-reducing sections are joined to each other and to the optic by a joining section. The joining section is flexible so that the glare-reducing sections can be moved over the optic to reduce the overall dimensions of the intraocular lens for implantation. Fixation members fix the intraocular lens in the eye.
