Eligibility:
All Genders
50+ years
Phase:
PHASE3
Brief Summary

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Patients must be scheduled to undergo primary intraocular lens implantation for the correction of aphakia following extraction of a senile cataract.
- Patients must have a cataract causing reduction in visual acuity to a level of 20/40 or worse with BAT on medium setting.
- Patients must require Synchrony® Lens correction of 16D - 28D or, if participating in the control study, patients must require a Clariflex® (AMO®), Phacoflex® II models SI30NB (AMO®) or a SI40NB (AMO®).
- Patients must have ≤ 1.0 D of preoperative keratometric astigmatism.
- Patients must have clear intraocular media other than cataract(s).
- Patients must be age 50 or older at the time of implantation.
- Patient must be willing and able to return for all scheduled follow-up examinations and have signed a written informed consent form.
Exclusion

- Patients with previous retinal detachment or retinal pathology including age- related macular degeneration.
- Patients with diabetes, currently being treated systemically.
- Patients with systemic or ocular disease that may prevent the patient from achieving uncorrected distance visual acuity of 20/32 or better post operatively.
- Patients with congenital bilateral cataract.
- Patients who require chronic administration of any topical ophthalmic or systemic medication that may affect accommodation such as mydriatic, cycloplegic and myotic agents; tricyclic antidepressants, phenothiazines, benzodiazepines, first generation antihistamines, anticholinergic agents. The use of tamsulosin hydrochloride (Flomax®) is also excluded preoperatively due to floppy iris syndrome.
- Patients with best corrected visual acuity of 20/80 or worse in the fellow eye not attributable to cataract.
- Patients who are currently participating or have participated in an investigational study, other than this study, within the past 60 days.
- Patients who have had previous ocular surgery in the operative eye, including refractive surgery.
