Claim 9:
10. An ophthalmic lens, comprising:
a fluid optic body forming a posterior side of the ophthalmic lens and comprising:
a deformable optical membrane configured to extend across an optical axis of an eye,
a sidewall connected to the deformable optical membrane, and
a cavity for containing an optical fluid;

a ring forming an anterior side of the ophthalmic lens and encircling a substantially transparent viewing passageway;
a plurality of struts extending from the sidewall and coupling the fluid optic body to the ring, the plurality of struts configured to increase a radius of curvature of the deformable optical membrane under axial compression of the ophthalmic lens; and
a mechanical block configured to limit the increase in the radius of curvature of the deformable optical membrane.
