Patent attributes
An intraocular lens includes a lens capsule expanding device and an optical portion. The lens capsule expanding device includes a front supporting portion to make contact with an inner surface of an anterior capsule. A rear supporting portion provided on a rear side of the front supporting portion makes contact with an inner surface of a posterior capsule while facing the front supporting portion. A connecting portion connects the front supporting portion and the rear supporting portion so as to have biasing force in a direction of separating the front supporting portion and the rear supporting portion from each other. Due to the biasing force, the front supporting portion presses the inner surface of the anterior capsule and the rear supporting portion presses the inner surface of the posterior capsule. The optical portion changes the curvature of a central portion according to movement of the connecting portion.
