Visual Performance of Clareon PanOptix vs. a Comparable Multifocal Intraocular Lens

Inclusion Criteria: Stage 1: IIT Pilot * Willing and able to understand and sign informed consent. * Adult patients previously diagnosed with age-related cataracts bilaterally. * Previous bilateral age-related cataract removal and with bilateral implantation of the Clareon PanOptix/ Clareon PanOptix Toric (T3-T4) or Comparable Multifocal Intraocular Lens (equivalent to T3-T4) closest to 2.5-5-months after implantation and \>2 weeks post YAG (if done) that were targeted for emmetropia. * Best monocular corrected distance visual acuity was expected to be 0.1 logMAR (Snellen 20/25) or better in both eyes pre-operatively as determined by surgeon. * Normal ocular findings aside from cataract. Stage 2: Comparison * Willing and able to understand and sign informed consent. * Adult patient diagnosed with age-related cataracts bilaterally. * Planned bilateral cataract removal by femtosecond laser-assisted phacoemulsification with bilateral implantation of the Clareon PanOptix/Clareon PanOptix Toric (T3-T4) or Comparable Multifocal Intraocular Lens (equivalent to T3-T4). * Best monocular corrected distance visual acuity expected to be 0.1 logMAR (Snellen 20/25) or better in both eyes postoperatively as determined by surgeon. * Residual astigmatism expected to be ≤ 0.50 diopters in both eyes postoperatively as determined by surgeon (after using either toric IOL or arcuate incision with laser). * Normal ocular findings aside from cataract.
