  • Pupil mydriasis ≥ 7mm
  • In the bag Intraocular Lens (IOL)

Exclusion criteria

Treatment and study plan

Model SN60WF

Device

Implantation with the AcrySof Model SN60WF Single-piece intraocular lens (IOL) following cataract removal.

Model MA60AC

Device

Implantation with the AcrySof Model MA60AC multi-piece intraocular lens (IOL) following cataract surgery.

Primary outcomes

  1. Posterior Capsule Opacification (PCO)

    Time frame: Up to 3 years

    Development of PCO using the EPCO Score. The EPCO score incorporates planimetric & grading assessments. The density of the opacification behind the Intraocular Lens (IOL) is graded clinically as follows: 0=No detectable opacification; 1=Minimal detectable opacification; 2=mild detectable opacification; 3=moderate detectable opacification; 4=severe detectable opacification. The individual PCO score is calculated by multiplying the opacification grade by the fraction of capsule area involved behind the IOL optic. The selection process and grading of areas are subjective.
