What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Uncorrected Visual Acuity (UCVA)
Time Frame: 6 Months after surgery
Uncorrected Visual Acuity (UCVA) from surgery measured in logMAR. LogMAR is the "logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution". A lower logMAR value indicates better visual acuity.
6 Months after surgery

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Questionnaire Results
Time Frame: 6 Months
Results of questionnaire rating the quality of distance vision without glasses or contact lenses. Measured on a scale of 0 to 6 (0 = worst, 6 = best).
6 Months
