Accommodating intraocular lenses

1. An accommodating intraocular lens, comprising:

an optic portion comprising an anterior surface and a posterior surface;

a peripheral portion disposed radially relative to the optic portion and in communication with the optic portion and, the peripheral portion having a proximal portion secured to the optic portion and a free distal portion disposed away from the proximal portion, wherein a radially innermost surface of the peripheral portion, from the proximal portion to the free distal portion, follows a curved radially-outermost peripheral surface of the optic portion; and

flowable media adapted to be moved between a peripheral portion fluid chamber and the optic portion in response to deformation of the peripheral portion, the peripheral portion having a cross section in the anterior-to-posterior direction in which the fluid chamber has, in an at-rest undeformed state, a D shape, with a radially outer surface of the fluid chamber having a higher degree of curvature than a radially inner surface of the fluid chamber,

wherein at least one of the anterior surface and the posterior surface is adapted to move to change the power of the intraocular lens.

2. The intraocular lens of claim 1 wherein the peripheral portion comprises a first haptic, the accommodating intraocular lens further comprising a second haptic, the first and second haptics extending from the optic portion and in fluid communication with the optic portion.

3. The intraocular lens of claim 2 wherein the first and second haptics extend from the optic portion 180 degrees apart.

4. The intraocular lens of claim 1 wherein the peripheral portion is adapted to change shape in response to a capsular bag force to move the flowable media between the peripheral portion and the optic portion.
