  Purpose

This study compares two intraocular lenses, the Softec HD and the Tecnis Z9002, used to replace the natural crystalline lens after cataract extraction. The variables compared include 1) the accuracy of targeted versus achieved refractive outcomes and 2) visual acuity outcomes three months after implantation.
