Zusammenfassung:An intraocular lens includes an optic for focusing light and a movement assembly coupled to the optic.

The movement assembly includes a plurality of movement members each with a proximal region coupled to the optic and an enlarged distal region. The enlarged distal region may be integral with the proximal region, or may be mechanically coupled thereto.
