Visual Acuity
Comparison of visual acuity (measured in logMAR) prior to and following bilateral implantation of the AcrySof ReSTOR Aspheric Intraocular Lens (IOL). Visual parameters were assessed prior to and after the implantation of the second lens at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months. LogMAR, the unit of measure for visual acuity, is the "logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution". A lower logMAR value indicates better visual acuity.
Time frame: pre-operative;1 week,1 month, 3 months and 6 months after 2nd eye surgery
