Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
During this study, patient data will be collected and analyzed by means of intraoperative documentation. <br>On the one hand, a well-founded statement about the quality of the incisions, the surgically induced astigmatism and the optimal or minimal limbal distance of the incisions during femto-cataract surgery will be made.<br>On the other hand, incision patterns as well as the time of phacoemulsification will be analyzed in comparison to conventional cataract surgery.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
The secondary endpoint of the study will be the development of visual acuity after femto-cataract surgery compared to conventional phacoemulsification.
