Abstract
A method of molding a deformable optic for a soft intraocular lens in which the optic has an opening therein for securely receiving a filamentary fixation member is disclosed. The method includes positioning a wire-like insert member in a mold for the optic at a location corresponding to the desired location of the opening, filling the mold about the wire-like insert member with a curable material selected to form the deformable optic, curing the material, and removing the wire-like insert member from the cured, molded optic.
