Prosthetic capsular devices, systems, and methods

A prosthetic capsular system for insertion into a natural capsular bag of an eye, the system comprising:

• a housing structure configured to contain one or more intraocular lenses, the housing structure comprising:
• a posterior portion comprising a posterior arcuate opening configured to receive a distinct refractive surface;
• an anterior portion opposite the posterior portion, the anterior portion comprising an anterior arcuate opening configured to allow at least one or more of insertion, removal, or replacement of the one or more intraocular lenses, wherein the anterior arcuate opening is in fluid communication with the natural capsular bag of the eye upon insertion into the natural capsular bag;
• and
• a solid and continuous exterior sidewall extending between the posterior portion and the anterior portion, wherein at least a portion of the exterior sidewall is configured to contact the natural capsular bag of the eye upon insertion into the natural capsular bag, the exterior sidewall comprising:
• a substantially straight-walled central portion comprising an outermost diameter of the housing structure, wherein the outermost diameter of the housing structure is located radially outward from the posterior portion and the anterior portion;
• a first exterior tapered portion between the substantially straight-walled central portion and the anterior portion, wherein the first exterior tapered portion tapers from a diameter of the substantially straight-walled central portion to the anterior portion;
• and
• a second exterior tapered portion between the substantially straight-walled central portion and the posterior portion, wherein the second exterior tapered portion tapers from the diameter of the substantially straight-walled central portion to the posterior portion,
• wherein the first exterior tapered portion extends radially outward from the anterior portion to the outermost diameter of the housing structure,
• wherein the second exterior tapered portion extends radially outward from the posterior portion to the outermost diameter of the housing structure,
• wherein the first exterior tapered portion and the second exterior tapered portion are adapted to inhibit or prevent migration of the one or more intraocular lenses to the anterior portion or posterior portion of the housing structure,
• wherein the posterior portion, the anterior portion, and an interior sidewall define a cavity configured to contain the one or more intraocular lenses,
• wherein the cavity comprises one or more interior grooves adapted to maintain a position of the one or more intraocular lenses,
• wherein the interior sidewall is substantially parallel to the exterior sidewall, and
• wherein the posterior portion, the anterior portion, and the exterior sidewall substantially enclose the housing structure except at said anterior arcuate opening and posterior arcuate opening.
