Abstract
An ocular implant is constructed of a clear, transparent, biologically compatible material and includes a hydrophilic outer surface configured for continuous attachment to a posterior surface of a cornea. The ocular implant has a first radius of curvature at initial attachment to the posterior surface of the cornea and a second radius of curvature at post-initial attachment to the posterior surface of the cornea. The first radius of curvature is different than the second radius of curvature. The ocular implant remains attached to the posterior surface of the cornea at both the first and second radii of curvature.
