The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of the higher cylinder (ZCT450,ZCT525 and ZCT600) toric IOLs. Some subjects had the higher cylinder toric IOLs in both eyes with other subjects having a higher cylinder toric IOL in one eye and the lower cylinder toric IOL in the other eye.
Per the statistical plan, data for the ZCT450/525/600 toric IOLs were to be pooled together and reported as one group.
The primary endpoint is the rate of severe visual distortions reported by subject at 6 months via questionnaire. The analysis population for this endpoint will be bilaterally implanted subjects with a high cylinder IOL (ZCT450/525/600) in the primary eye and a high cylinder IOL (ZCT450/525/600) or a low cylinder IOL (ZCT300/400) in the fellow eye.
There were no formal secondary endpoints. Data from a few other endpoints (rate of IOL repositioning due to IOL misalignment and percent change in cylinder) have been reported. For these endpoints the analysis population contains all subjects implanted with a ZCT450/525/600 in at least one eye.
Adverse events were reported by subject for all subjects with a high cylinder IOL (ZCT450/525/600) in at least one eye.

- Rate of Severe Visual Distortions [ Time Frame: 6 months ]Rate of severe visual distortions based on data from a self administered subject questionnaire
- Rate of IOL Repositioning Due to IOL Misalignment [ Time Frame: 6 months ]Rate of IOL repositioning due to IOL misalignment in primary and fellow eyes with a high cylinder toric IOL
- Percent Change in Cylinder [ Time Frame: 6 months ]Percent change in cylinder= ((postop refractive cylinder-preop keratometric cylinder) / (Target refractive cylinder-preop keratometric cylinder))*100
