Exclusion

  • Pseudoexfoliation syndrome in one or both eyes
  • Prior incisional ocular surgery
  • Lens subluxation
  • Poor dilation or inability to position at the slit lamp (making postoperative outcome measurements difficult or impossible)
  • Plans for extensive travel or to move away during the postoperative evaluation period
  • Other conditions that would influence the capsule or lens positioning
  • Surgical plan to include other procedures at the time of initial cataract surgery, such as Limbal Relaxing Incisions (LRIs), Micro-Incisional Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS), etc.
