Measure
Conventional
Surgeon's standard of care prior to getting VERION. Spherical power will be selected using the surgeon's preferred formula (Haigis, Holladay 2, Holladay, or other) and biometry method (IOL Master, Lenstar). Astigmatism correction will be planned using the surgeon's preferred keratometry method and calculator/nomogram to determine toric power and corneal incisions (i.e. Alcon toric calculator, Holladay toric calculator, Abbott Medical Optics (AMO) LRI calculator, etc). At time of surgery, axis of placement will be marked using blue ink marks. Corneal incisions will be made manually. Conventional: Routine cataract surgery by phacoemulsification before laser-assisted cataract surgery.
Refractive Cataract Suite (Verion + ORA)
Digital Surgical Planning and Positioning Tools + ORA System with VerifEye or VerifEye +. Spherical power of the IOL will be selected using the Verion Planner with the surgeon's preferred formula with an optimized A-constant (Haigis, Holladay 2, Holladay, or other). Both toric lenses and corneal incisions will be calculated with the Verion Planner using the Verion Reference Unit keratometry and white to white measurements, and Lenstar biometry. The VERION Digital Markers L and M will be used for axis of placement and confirmed using ORA System with VerifEye or VerifEye +. Verion: Laser-assisted cataract surgery with the digital surgical planning and positioning tools, and intraoperative aberrometry.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Three months

Population: This is a contra-lateral eye study where the first eye undergoing surgery was randomized to conventional or the refractive cataract suite, the fellow eye received the alternate treatment; therefore, we analyzed 78 eyes of 39 participants.

This is the anterior corneal astigmatism measured through keratometry. Note that because cataract surgery has been performed, there is no associated baseline value.
