Intraocular lens are very common in the treatment of Cataract. An

Intraocular lens (IOL) is an artificial lens inserted during cataract
surgery to replace the natural lens. It also may be surgically inserted
as a method of vision correction that leaves the eye’s natural lens
intact. Surgery for cataracts involves removing the natural lens of the
eye that contains the cataract and either replacing it with an artificial
lens called an Intraocular lens implant (IOL) or compensating for its
absence with eyeglasses or contact lenses. Mainly two types of
Materials are used for the production of this artificial lens, PMMA &
