The NuLens accommodating intraocular lens.
The NuLens intraocular lens (IOL) uses a new optomechanical concept to generate a wide range of dioptric power from minimal movements of the ciliary apparatus during accommodative effort. Basic study of the concept of optomechanics in the primate eye led to successful construction and implantation of functioning IOL prototypes.
