Intraocular lenses with anti-anterior capsular contraction feature and method of implantation thereof

An intraocular lens, comprising:

• an optic portion comprising an optic fluid chamber;
• a haptic having a proximal end coupled to the optic portion and a distal free end, the haptic comprising a haptic fluid lumen extending through at least part of the haptic and in fluid communication with the optic fluid chamber;
• and
• one or more support columns disposed within the haptic fluid lumen, and wherein the one or more support columns are configured to maintain a shape of the haptic fluid lumen in response to forces applied to the haptic as a result of capsular contraction.

A method of implanting an intraocular lens, comprising:

• removing at least part of an anterior capsular wall of a capsular bag of a subject to form a capsulorhexis;
• removing cellular material from within the capsular bag using a capsular polishing tool;
• and
• introducing the intraocular lens into the capsular bag through the capsulorhexis, wherein the intraocular lens comprises:
• an optic portion comprising an optic fluid chamber;
• and
• a haptic having a proximal end coupled to the optic portion and a distal free end, the haptic comprising a haptic fluid lumen extending through at least part of the haptic and in fluid communication with the optic fluid chamber, wherein the haptic is configured to maintain a shape of the haptic fluid lumen in response to forces applied to the haptic as a result of capsular contraction post-implantation.
