Primary outcomes (capsular bend index [CBI], adhesion index [AI], and continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis diameter [CCCD]) and secondary outcomes (IOL tilt and decentration) were quantitatively assessed at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months postoperatively using 14-meridian swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) (CASIA 2; Tomey).
