Iris-fixation intraocular lens (An optical device, generally referred to as an intraocular lens (IOL), designed to be permanently implanted and fixed to the iris as a substitute for the natural eye lens. It typically consists of a graduated plastic lens (i.e., having non-uniform light transmissivity for therapeutic purposes) with one or more fixing attachments frequently consisting of two loops. It is implanted following natural lens removal, usually after cataract surgery when implantation in the bag is not possible due to inadequate capsular support. Disposable devices associated with implantation may be included with the lens.)
