Zusammenfassung:	An accommodating intraocular lens (50) adapted for a post-implant modification is described. The lens includes an optic portion (56, 58, 62), a non-optic portion (52, 54) disposed peripherally from the optic portion and adapted to engage a lens capsule, wherein the intraocular lens is adapted to change power in response to ciliary muscle movement. The lens also includes an actuatable element (60) adapted to be actuated by an external energy source to change an optical parameter of the intraocular lens.
