Summary:ACCOMMODATING INTRAOCULAR LENS SYSTEM HAVING SPHERICAL ABERRATION COMPENSATION AND METHOD Abstract of the Disclosure An accommodating intraocular lens includes an optic portion, a haptic portion. The optic portion of the lens includes an actuator that deflects a lens element to alter the optical power of the lens responsive to forces applied to the haptic portion of the lens by contraction of the ciliary muscles and a secondary deflection mechanism. Movement of the lens element by the actuator causes the lens element to deform and the secondary deflection mechanism causes the lens to further deform. 5373904_1 (GHMatters) P80783.AU.1 9/05/2014
