Brief summary

This study will be a prospective, multicenter, bilateral, comparative, three-way masked (Sponsor, subject and evaluator), randomized clinical investigation conducted at up to 15 sites. Up to 300 subjects will be enrolled to achieve approximately 270 bilaterally implanted subjects, resulting in approximately 244 evaluable subjects (122 per lens group) at 6 months. After informed consent is obtained and confirmation that all eligibility criteria are met, the eye(s) may be treated according to randomization. After signing the informed consent form, subjects meeting all eligibility criteria will be randomized in a masked fashion to a treatment group: either the investigational IOL Model ZFR00V or the control IOL Model ZCB00. Prior to randomization, the investigator will choose which eye to operate on first for each subject at his/her discretion based on his/her standard clinical practice (e.g., the eye with the worse cataract, poorer best corrected distance vision and/or more severe optical/visual complaints). All subjects are intended to have bilateral cataract surgery with the second eye surgery occurring after the 1-week postoperative exam for the first eye, but no more than 30 days after the first eye surgery. All subjects will be examined through 6 months postoperatively according to the visit schedule

TRIPLE (Subject, Caregiver, Outcomes Assessor)

Masking description

Only the surgeon and the operative staff will know which lens type is implanted and will be unmasked throughout the study. There may also be site coordinators and other site study staff, such as those performing slit-lamp exams, who will be unmasked. Unmasked study staff and study subjects will be instructed not to disclose the lens type the subject received or to talk about the lens to any subjects or masked evaluators. The subjects and the study technicians performing the postoperative vision tests are to be masked through study completion. To maintain subject/technician-masking through the 6-month study exams, a masking plan will be tailored for each site to detail how lens assignment information will be concealed from masked technicians.

Pre-assignment details

272 subjects were bilaterally implanted with either the study or control lens. 135 subjects were bilaterally implanted with the study lens and 137 subjects were bilaterally implanted with the control lens. All 272 subjects were bilaterally implanted with the same IOL model in both eyes.
