Cataract Congenital Clinical Trial
Official title:
Comparative Analysis of Visual Outcomes of Multifocal and Monofocal Intraocular Lenses in Congenital Cataract Surgery
The aim of this study is to evaluate long-term outcome after congenital cataract surgery comparing results achieved with multifocal and monofocal IOLs.
PURPOSE: To assess the impact on visual development of multifocal versus monofocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) implantation in children following congenital cataract surgery. DESIGN: Retrospective interventional consecutive case series. METHODS: We reviewed the records of 56 eyes of 43 pediatric patients who underwent congenital cataract surgery with phacoaspiration and simultaneous implantation of IOL under one year of age. Corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), refractive error and ocular motility disorders were evaluated after a follow-up greater than 4 years. ;
