Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: a) Pseudophakic patients - Pseudophakic patients implanted with standard monofocal intraocular lenses who underwent cataract surgery within the past 5 years - Patients following Nd:YAG capsulotomy - Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) = 0.8 Snellen (= 0.1 logMAR) - Astigmatism = 2.0 D - Ability to provide informed consent and comply with study procedures b) Phakic patients Without relevant additional ocular pathology: - Phakic adult patients (e.g., in the context of refractive lens exchange) - Phakic adult patients with cataract and no further relevant ocular comorbidities - Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) = 0.8 Snellen (˜ 0.1 logMAR) - Astigmatism = 2.0 D - Ability to provide informed consent and comply with study procedures With ocular comorbidities: - Phakic or pseudophakic patients with stable ocular disease - Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) = 0.4 Snellen (˜ 0.4 logMAR) - Astigmatism = 2.0 D - Ability to provide informed consent and comply with study procedures c) Healthy phakic participants - Healthy adult participants with no known ocular or systemic disease affecting visual function - Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) = 0.8 Snellen (˜ 0.1 logMAR) - Astigmatism = 2.0 D - Ability to provide informed consent and comply with study procedures

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: a) Pseudophakic patients - Systemic disease affecting visual function - Ocular disease other than the surgically treated cataract - Visually significant posterior capsule opacification (PCO) Prior ocular surgery other than cataract extraction b) Phakic patients Without relevant additional ocular pathology: - Known additional ocular or systemic disease affecting visual function c) Healthy phakic participants - Prior ocular surgery
