An intraocular lens includes an optic for focusing light and a movement assembly coupled to the optic. The movement assembly is adapted to cooperate with the eye to effect accommodating movement of the optic. The movement assembly includes a plurality of movement members and a suspension structure. The movement members are coupled to a periphery of the optic. The suspension structure is coupled to the movement members and is adapted to be in contact with a peripheral region of a cpasular bag of an eye. The movement members are adapted to convert radial movement of the suspension structure caused by movement of the capsular bag to axial movement of the optic. The movement members are also adapted to amplify the radial movement of the suspension structure so that the optic moves axially a greater distance than the distance moved radially by the suspension structure.

La présente invention concerne une lentille intraoculaire comprenant une optique qui permet de focaliser la lumière et un ensemble de mouvement couplé à l'optique. L'ensemble de mouvement est apte à coopérer avec l'oeil pour effectuer un mouvement d'accommodation de l'optique. L'ensemble de mouvement comprend une pluralité d'éléments de mouvement et une structure de suspension. Les éléments de mouvement sont couplés à la périphérie de l'optique. La structure de suspension est couplée aux éléments de mouvement et est apte à se trouver en contact avec la région périphérique du sac capsulaire d'un oeil. Les éléments de mouvement sont aptes à convertir le mouvement radial de la structure de suspension entraîné par le mouvement du sac capsulaire en un mouvement axial de l'optique. Les éléments de mouvement sont également aptes à amplifier le mouvement radial de la structure de suspension de façon que l'optique se déplace axialement sur une distance plus grande que la distance sur laquelle la structure de suspension se déplace radialement.
