Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Corrected and uncorrected visual acuity in far (4m), intermediate (80 cm) and near (40 cm) distance using ETDRS (Early Treatment of Diabethic Retinopathia Study) charts. For each patient both eyes are examined. The visual acuity data are collected preoperatively and 1 week, 1 and 3 months after cataract surgery. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| -Tomography changes of the anterior segment of the eye (using Pentacam AXL, Oculus) preoperatively and 3 months postoperatively -Binocular defocus curve between -4.0 D and +2.0 D (in 0.5 D steps) using ETDRS (Early Treatment of Diabethic Retinopathia Study) charts after 3 months postoperatively -Contrast sensitivity (using Pelli Robson charts) after 3 months postoperatively -Patient satisfaction using optical quality questionnaire preoperatively and 3 months postoperatively | — |
