The study design will be a prospective study comparing laser-assisted cataract extraction cases and traditional manual phacoemulsification cases. All cases will be performed by faculty-supervised residents at Parkland Memorial Hospital. This study aims to examine visual acuity and complication rates in femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery compared to traditional manual phacoemulsification cataract surgery for the beginning surgeon. In addition, this study will assess the subjective novice surgeon experience and the patient experience in terms of expectations and results.
