Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect that placement and power of the AcrySof Toric has on post-operative visual acuity and spectacle independence for distance vision. This will be determined by comparing manifest refraction pre-operatively and post-operatively and by evaluating the rotational stability of the lens over time.

Interventions

Implantation with the AcrySof Toric IOL for cataract replacement and multiple follow-up assessments

Inclusion criteria

* Are a candidate for bilateral implantation * In good general and ocular health, 21 years of age or older, of either gender or any race, diagnosed with age-related cataracts in both eyes * In need of spherical correction between 10.0 Diopter (D) and 30.0 D * Preoperative regular corneal astigmatism, ≥ 1.0 D and ≤ 2.5 D , as measured by keratometry * Willing and able to complete all required postoperative visits * Able to comprehend and sign a statement of informed consent * Pupil dilation ≥ 6.0 mm * Expected to achieve a postoperative logMAR +0.3 or better visual acuity (as assessed by one or more of the following: fundus examination, pinhole visual acuity, and/or PAM evaluation);

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Visual Acuity (VA)Pre-operative, 1 month, 3 month, and 6 month post-operativePre-operative and 1 month, 3 month, and 6 month post-operative visual acuity (VA) measured in logMAR. LogMAR is the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution. It is a unit of measure for visual acuity (VA).

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Spectacle Independence6 months post-operativePercentage of subjects reporting that they never wear glasses at the 6 month post-operative visit
IOL Rotation6 months post-operativeEvaluation of percentage of patients that experienced rotation of the intraocular lens (IOL) less than or equal to 5 degrees from initial implantation, and less than or equal to 10 degrees from initial implantation.
