A toric intraocular lens is configured for enhanced stability after implantation into a capsular bag of an eye. The intraocular lens has one or more haptics extending from the lens, with stabilization enhanced by configuring the lens to include at least one engagement element configured to cooperate with the interior to the capsular bag to resist relative rotation of the lens. In one aspect of the invention, the engagement element can be provided in the form of one or more rotation-inhibiting projections provided on the lens body and/or the haptics of the lens. In another aspect of the invention, the lens includes an anterior surface which is configured to provide enhanced frictional engagement of the intraocular lens with the interior of the eye. The anterior surface of the lens can be roughened in order to provide the desired frictional engagement.
