Systems and methods of the disclosure relate to managing power consumption of an implantable device, such as an implantable ophthalmic device, that includes one or more rechargeable batteries and a processor operably coupled to the rechargeable batteries. The processor can be configured to implement a quick-charge process that includes charging each rechargeable battery for a first time interval using a first constant current, for a second time interval using a second constant current less than the first constant current, and for a third time interval using a constant voltage. This quick charge process is faster than conventional charging. The processor also manages discharge of two batteries in an alternating fashion so as to increase time between charging cycles, reduce the total number of charging cycles, and extend battery life.
