Patent ID: 7662180

Claim:
An intraocular lens comprising: an optic adapted to focus light toward a retina of an eye; and a movement assembly coupled to the optic, at least a portion of the optic and at least a first portion of the movement assembly both being made of a first material having a first stiffness, at least a second portion of the movement assembly being made of a second material having a second stiffness, wherein the first stiffness is greater than the second stiffness; wherein the movement assembly comprises a plurality of spaced apart plate members, each plate member including a proximal end region coupled to the optic and a distal end region extending away from the optic; wherein the distal end regions are made at least partially of a third material which has an increased stiffness relative to the second material; wherein the first material comprises a crosslinked acrylic polymer, and the second material comprises an acrylic hydrogel-forming polymer; wherein the third material is a different material than the first material.
