An intraocular lens has central lens body with a first and second, opposite posterior and anterior surfaces, the posterior and anterior surfaces meeting in a rounded peripheral side surface. The lens further has at least a pair of haptics extending from the peripheral side surface of the central lens body, each of the haptics having an arcuate configuration so that a radially distal end of each haptic is engageable within the ciliary sulcus of the eye. The haptics engageable with the ciliary sulcus for stabilizing the central lens body at a location posterior, or rearward, of both the lens capsule anterior and posterior portions, such that the central lens body seals the anterior and posterior portions together proximal to a capsulotomy in each of the anterior and posterior portions.
