Abstract

The invention relates to an adjustable intraocular lens with a lens body 1, haptic arms 3 for fixing the lens body 1 in the eye, and an adjustment means for moving the lens body 1 relative to the haptic arm 3 in the direction of the optic axis 27 of the lens body 1 and for adjusting the extent of the movement. The haptic arms 3 are each directly connected to the lens body 1 via one of their ends. The haptic arms 3 preferably have a bifurcation 31, 33, and only one of the two fork ends 31 is connected to the lens body 1. The adjustment means, preferably with an adjusting screw 37, is screwed through one of the two fork ends 31, 33 and changes the distance between the two fork ends 31, 33. The intraocular lens according to the invention is easy and inexpensive to produce.
