1. Patients requiring bilateral cataract surgery with good visual potential and a full visual field in each eye
2. Age range 30 to 90 years
3. Biometry indicating IOL power requirement within the range +10 to +30D for emmetropia (0.00 to -0.50D spherical equivalent) in both eyes
1. Patients aiming for a refractive result other than bilateral emmetropia (0.00 to -0.50D spherical equivalant) or emmetropia in one eye and low myopia in the other, i.e., the intended monovision outcome
2. Significant co-pathology (including macular pathology, glaucoma, uveitis, corneal disease, diabetic retinopathy, previous retinal detachment surgery)
3. Keratometric astigmatism 1.5D in either eye
4. Amblyopia
5. Congenital or traumatic cataracts
6. Poor comprehension of written or spoken English
7. Inability to give informed consent
8. Mobility, tremor or postural problems causing discomfort during slit lamp examination
