An accommodating intraocular lens implant for implantation in a human eye, including an optic adapted for coaxial alignment with a vision axis of the human eye, and at least one haptic. The haptic includes an anchor portion for receipt in one of a periphery of a capsular bag of the human eye, a cilairy sulcus of the human eye, and an angle of the anterior chamber of the human eye, and a sinuous portion extending radially from the optic and including a proximal end connected to the optic, a distal end spaced from the optic and connected to the anchor portion, and at least four curves successively connected between the proximal end and the distal end. The sinuous portion is adapted to flex upon ciliary muscle action to move the optic along the vision axis and allow the intraocular lens implant to automatically accommodate.
