Intraocular lens implant

A kit consisting of a lens implant for a placement into a posterior portion of an intracapsular space after removal of a native lens body from a lens capsule of an eye and a capsule filling composition for use in intraocular surgery for filling the intracapsular space after introduction of the lens implant

• wherein the lens implant is formed of one part and manufactured from a suitable transparent non-cellular structural material, wherein the non-cellular structural material is selected from the group consisting of:
• a silicone, a hydrophobic acrylic material, a hydrophilic acrylic material, a hydrogel, and a collagen polymer,
• wherein the lens implant is dimensioned to keep an anterior portion of the intracapsular space free of non-cellular structural material and subunits thereof,
• wherein the lens implant is devoid of any further part formed by the non-cellular structural material or subunits thereof,
• wherein the lens implant comprises at most 40% of a volume of the native lens body, which was removed or of the volume of a native lens body with an average size, and
• wherein the lens implant has a convex posterior surface with a curvature which is shaped to fit a posterior inner surface of the capsule,
• wherein the volume of the filling composition and the volume of the lens implant are such as provide for reconstitution of a volume essentially corresponding to the volume of the native lens body which was removed or of the volume of a native lens body with an average size and
• wherein the capsular filling composition is of an aqueous composition and is devoid of said non-cellular structural material or subunits thereof.
