Zusammenfassung:	An intraocular lens (10) (IOL) is provided having a depressed inner optic area and a thickened or raised peripheral outer lip or rim (30) integrally formed with the edge (18) of the optic (12). Such a design reduces the mass of the IOL, minimizing the thickness for any given diameter and power of optic, making the lens easier to insert in a very small incision, without damaging the optic or compromising the stability of the IOL.
