Visual Function After Implantation of Bilateral AcrySof® Toric Natural Intraocular Lens

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.

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);

Exclusion Criteria:
