Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a posterior chamber intraocular lens with swivel haptics for capsulotomy fixation in an eye. The posterior chamber intraocular lens includes a circular optic and at least one pair of swivel haptics. The circular optic is configured to be positioned within a capsular bag of the eye. The circular optic includes plurality of positioning holes on a periphery. The at least one pair of swivel haptics is positioned on the circular optic. The at least one pair of swivel haptics is configured to be rotated away from the circular optic and fixed above an anterior capsule of the eye.

A posterior chamber intraocular lens for capsulotomy fixation in an eye, the posterior chamber intraocular lens comprising:
- a circular optic configured to be positioned within a capsular bag of the eye, wherein the circular optic comprises a plurality of positioning holes on a periphery of the circular optic;
- and
- at least one pair of swivel haptics positioned on the circular optic, the at least one pair of swivel haptics configured to be rotated away from the circular optic and fixed above an anterior capsule of the eye.
A posterior chamber intraocular lens for capsulotomy fixation in an eye, the posterior chamber intraocular lens comprising:
- a circular optic configured to be positioned within a capsular bag of the eye, wherein the circular optic comprises a plurality of positioning holes on a periphery of the circular optic, a first positioning hole of the plurality of positioning holes at a right end of the circular optic, and a second positioning hole of the plurality of positioning holes at a left end of the circular optic;
- a pair of curved haptics extending from the circular optic in diagonally opposed directions to each other, a first curved haptic of the pair of curved haptics extending from a top end of the circular optic to rest against a top inner periphery of the capsular bag, and a second curved haptic of the pair of curved haptics extending from a bottom end of the circular optic to rest against a bottom inner periphery of the capsular bag;
- a pair of pivots, a first pivot of the pair of pivots positioned in the first positioning hole, and a second pivot of the pair of pivots positioned in the second positioning hole;
- and
- a pair of swivel haptics positioned perpendicular to the pair of curved haptics on the circular optic, a first swivel haptic of the pair of swivel haptics configured to swivel on the first pivot, a second swivel haptic of the pair of swivel haptics configured to swivel on the second pivot, the first swivel haptic and the second swivel haptic configured to be rotated away from the circular optic and fixed into an angular position above an anterior capsule of the eye.
