Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The present invention relates to compositions comprising polysiloxanes suitable for the preparation of accommodating intraocular lenses, having a specific gravity of greater than about 1.0, a refractive index suitable for restoring the refractive power of the natural crystalline lens and a viscosity suitable for injection through a standard cannula. The present invention includes intraocular lenses made from said polysiloxane compositions having a Young's modulus less than about 10 kPa.
