Device type (GMDN): Posterior-chamber intraocular lens, phakic

An optical device, generally referred to as an intraocular lens (IOL), intended to be implanted permanently in the posterior chamber of the eye (ring-like space filled with aqueous humor between the iris, the crystalline lens, and the ciliary body) to provide refractive correction of vision, typically in the treatment of myopia or hyperopia, without removal of the natural lens (crystalline lens). The device is typically made of a synthetic polymer; it is also referred to as an implantable contact lens (ICL). Disposable devices associated with implantation (e.g., IOL injector) may be included with the lens.
