Summary

This trial aims to evaluate how well patients with retinal issues see after cataract surgery and getting a new type of lens called Tecnis Symfony Optiblue.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals undergoing cataract surgery who wish to improve their vision at various distances. It's specifically testing a new type of lens implant that filters certain light wavelengths. Patients with additional eye conditions affecting the retina may also participate.
What is being tested?
The study is evaluating the Tecnis Symfony OptiBlue and its toric version, which are advanced lens implants designed to enhance vision after cataract removal by filtering violet light and reducing visual disturbances.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed, typical risks of lens implants include discomfort, visual disturbances like glare or halos, infection risk, and in rare cases, worsening of vision.
