Claim Text:
1. An intraocular lens system, comprising: a. an intraocular primary component having a body, one or more haptics, a center hole extending through the body in an anterior-posterior direction to form a continuous annular ring having an inside perimeter, and a continuous recess extending around an entirety of the inside perimeter, the continuous recess including an anterior-facing posterior wall, a radially-inward-facing lateral wall, and a posterior-facing anterior wall, wherein the primary component is configured to fit within a lens capsule; and b. an intraocular secondary component having an optical body, a first interlocking member having a first rigidity, and a second interlocking member having a second rigidity configured to allow the second interlocking member to transition between a compressed configuration and an uncompressed extended configuration, wherein the first rigidity is relatively greater than the second rigidity, the second interlocking member includes a deformable tab having at least one end connected to the optical body, and the first and second interlocking members are diametrically opposed to one another; c. wherein the continuous recess of the primary component is configured to releasably receive the second interlocking member of the secondary component to form an interlocking connection that limits relative movement between the intraocular primary and secondary components, and wherein the intraocular lens system is configured to provide optical correction to an eye solely via the optical body of the intraocular secondary component.
