Conclusions
1. Under centrifugal dynamic loads the effective mass of the IOL increases as a function of the material, size, and type of fixation of the IOL.
2. Polymers having a density close to the density of the aqueous humor make it possible to reduce the centrifugal loads of the IOL on the ocular tissue.
3. The obtained function of the quality of the IOL material in relation to its density and refractive index permits making an objective evaluation of various materials for IOL.
