Evaluation of intraocular lens fixation in pseudophakia.
I developed my own lens designs after analyzing the reasons for failure of previous designs. The iris clip lens and the capsular lens are supported by the iris and by the capsular membrane, respectively, the former having minimal and the latter having nearly no contact at all with intraocular tissues. A comparison between the iris and capsular membrane as support for an intraocular lens favor the capsular membrane.
