That depends upon how far they have progressed. The number you state is NOT an absolute.
Cataracts are a clouding of the fluid of the lens, not an optical focusing deficiency. During my wife's procedure(s) the clouded fluid was removed prior to the insertion of the lens. The lens itself was not much more than 3mm in diameter with a built in centering mechanism.
They are manufactured by
Advanced Medical Optics
