Age 18 or greater
Bilateral cataracts for which phacoemulsification extraction and posterior IOL implantation has been planned for both eyes
Visual potential of 20/30 or better in each eye after cataract removal and IOL implantation
Preoperative best-corrected distance visual acuity (BSDVA) worse than 20/40 Snellen. If there is a glare component, glare testing which reduces the visual acuity to less than 20/40
Naturally dilated pupil size (in dim light) \> 3.5 mm (with no dilation medications) for both eyes
Preoperative corneal astigmatism of 1.0 D or less
Clear intraocular media other than cataract
Availability, willingness, and sufficient cognitive awareness to comply with examination procedures
You may not be if
Use of systemic or ocular medications that may affect vision
Acute or chronic disease or illness that would increase risk or confound study results (e.g. diabetes mellitus, immunocompromised, etc.)
Subjects with diabetes mellitus
Uncontrolled systemic or ocular disease
History of ocular trauma or prior ocular surgery
Amblyopia or strabismus
Known pathology that may affect visual acuity; particularly retinal changes that affect vision (macular degeneration, cystoid macular edema, proliferative diabetic retinopathy, etc.)
Diagnosed degenerative visual disorders (e.g. macular degeneration, or other retinal disorders) that are predicted to cause future acuity losses to a level of 20/30 or worse
Subjects who may be expected to require retinal laser treatment or other surgical intervention
Capsule or zonular abnormalities that may affect postoperative centration or tilt of the lens (e.g. pseudoexfoliation syndrome)
Pupil abnormalities (non-reactive, tonic pupils, abnormally shaped pupils, or pupils that do not dilate at least 4.0 mm under mesopic/scotopic conditions)
Contact lens usage within 6 months for polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) contacts lenses, 1 month for gas permeable lenses or 1 week for extended-wear and daily-wear soft contact lenses
Requiring an intraocular lens \<15.0 or \>26.0 diopters
