An intraocular lensincludes a lensand a hapticconnected to the lens. The lensis disposed behind an irisin an eye of a patient. The haptichas a main bodyand first and second projectionsand. The main bodyextends from the lensoutward in a radial direction about a visual axis C of the patient. The first and second projectionsandare located so as to project from the main bodytoward spaces between a plurality of ciliary zonulesconnecting a crystalline lensand a ciliary bodyin the eye. Accordingly, an intraocular lens and a haptic for an intraocular lens that are able to inhibit the position of a lens from being displaced are provided.

Intraocular lens and haptic for intraocular lens

A hook portionis provided which is formed so as to extend from base portionsof the ciliary processesalong the outer surfaces of the ciliary processesvia anterior end portionsof the ciliary processesto base portionsat the opposite side. A leg portionextending from the hook portiontoward the visual axis C is connected to the hook portion, and a lensto be mounted in the eye of the patient is supported by the leg portion. The lensis held in the eye of the patient in a state where the hook portionis hooked or fitted to the ciliary processes

Intraocularly-mounted object and intraocularly-mounted object holding member

Provided are an intraocular implant, an intraocular implant set, and an intraocular lens in which the intraocular lens is easily replaced compared to the related art. A support structure is a portion which is used to dispose an intraocular lens (a lens) (in a rear section) inside an eye and is formed separately from the lens. When the lens is attached to the support structure, a configuration is formed which is the same as that of the existing intraocular lens including a lens serving as an eye lens extracted due to the cataract or the like and a portion supporting the lens into an eye. The support structure and the lens may be integrated with each other inside the eye. An embodiment in which only the lens is replaced while the support structure is fixed into the eye and which is not present in the related art can be realized.
