Abstract
An accommodating intraocular lens (AIOL) for implantation in a human eye includes a housing including an anterior member with a leading surface, a posterior member with a trailing surface, a leading shape memory optical element adjacent the anterior member and resiliently elastically deformable between a non-compressed shape in a non-compressed state of the AIOL and a compressed shape in a compressed state of the AIOL, and a trailing shape memory optical element adjacent the posterior member and elastically deformable between a non-compressed shape in the AIOL's non-compressed state and a compressed shape in the AIOL's compressed state for selectively bulging into the leading shape memory optical element on application of a compression force the said longitudinal axis against the trailing surface from a posterior direction for modifying the shape of the leading shape memory optical element with respect to its non-compressed shape in the AIOL's the non-compressed state.
