IOL power (D); MSE, mean spherical equivalent refraction (D); VA, visual acuity (logMAR); CS, contrast sensitivity (log units); Pupil size (mm); Aberrations (μm); Subcap scatter, lenticular posterior subcapsular light scatter (% compared to IOL clarity); Patient age (years). *Indicates significance at p<0.05.
