• Current participation in another drug or device investigation;
• Ocular disorders, other than cataract, that could potentially cause future acuity loss to a level of 0.20 logMAR (corrected) or worse in either eye
• Any anterior segment pathology that could significantly affect outcomes (e.g. chronic uveitis, iritis, corneal dystrophy, etc.)
• Pseudoexfoliations syndrome
• Pathologic miosis or Pharmacotherapy with miotic agent
• Keratoconus
