Filter by:In this prospective study , a cohort of 91 eyes with congenital cataract and 25 eyes normal eyes from Wenzhou medical university was erolled.91 eyes with congenital cataract was after lensectomy and anterior vitrectomy as test group, 25 normal eyes as control group. The a- and b-wave and PhNR related parameters was evaluated.
To determine the incidence of glaucoma following bilateral congenital cataract removal and estimate the associated risk factors in a large cohort to provide guidance for clinical practice.
Previously, the investigators have developed a surgical technique to reduce inflammatory response after congenital cataract surgery. This prospective, randomized controlled study aims to compare the prognosis of traditional cataract surgery with traditional surgery combined triamcinolone staining of the anterior vitreous in treating congenital cataracts.
Pediatric patients who have undergone surgery for congenital or infantile cataracts have a risk of developing suspected glaucoma and glaucoma, but the current evidence does not address our understanding of the incidence and associated risk factors of suspected glaucoma/glaucoma for application in clinical standard care. Therefore, this study investigated the incidence of and risk factors for suspected glaucoma/glaucoma in patients who have undergone surgery for congenital/infantile cataracts.
In this prospective study , a cohort of 58 eyes with congenital cataract from Wenzhou medical university was erolled.33 eyes with congenital cataract was after lensectomy and anterior vitrectomy as post-surger group, 26 eyes without cataract surgery as control group. The cytokines of MCP-1, VEGF, IL-1, IFN-γ, IL-1r,IL-4,IL-17, IL-2,IL-5,G-CSF,IL-12, IL-15 was evaluated
Congenital cataract is the main cause of form deprivation amblyopia in children. Current studies confirm that form deprivation amblyopia affects the macular development. However, there are different opinions about the effect of amblyopia on the macular thickness . Investigators have performed "cataract extraction with IOL implantation" on children with bilateral and unilateral congenital cataract. Investigators used OCT biometry to measure children's the macular thickness before and after surgery..Average sectional total thickness was automatically determined by the instrument's software using a modified Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) circle grid (fovea, inner ring, and outer ring: 1 mm, 3 mm, and 6 mm. Investigators dynamically observed changes in macular to explore the retinal mechanism of form deprivation amblyopia and help guide the clinical correct understanding of postoperative follow-up time.
Previously, the investigators have developed a minimal invasive lens surgery in the purpose of reduce post-operative complications of congenital cataract. This prospective, randomized controlled study aims at comparing the prognosis of the minimal invasive lens surgery and the traditional cataract surgery for treating congenital cataracts.
This study involved children with congenial cataract eyes, who underwent cataract surgeries at the Eye Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University (Hangzhou, China). All medical records were reviewed for primary diagnosis. All surgeries were performed by one experienced surgeon (Z.Y.E) and videos were collected for reviews in details. the clinical data after the surgery were also recorded for further analysis.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the morphology of iridocorneal angle and anterior segment structure in children with cataract, and to explore potential preoperative structural clues for postoperative glaucoma. The investigators included children with cataract planning to have cataract surgery in our institute. For analysis, one eye was randomly selected in a case of bilateral cataract via a random table, forming the "bilateral cataract" group; the cataractous eyes in cases of unilateral cataract composed the "unilateral cataract" group and the fellow non-cataractous eyes made up the "control" group. Exclusion criteria were: a history of ocular trauma, a history of intraocular surgery, preoperative glaucoma, steroid use before surgery, a history of maternal rubella syndrome, chronic anterior uveitis, persistent fetal vasculature, ocular anomalies associated with an increased risk of glaucoma, unable to complete examinations. The investigators recorded age at surgery, gender and relevant ocular and systemic histories. All patients underwent slit lamp biomicroscopy, dilated fundus examination and cycloplegic retinoscopy. In patients with good cooperation, The investigators obtained the axial length (AL) using IOL-Master 500 and the intraocular pressure (IOP) with a non-contact tonometer. In young patients with poor cooperation, the investigators measured the AL with a contact A-scan, the central corneal thickness (CCD) value with a handheld pachymeter and the IOP using a handheld tonometer under sedation. With a contact A-scan, the AL measurement was repeated 10 times by the same examiner and the mean value was analyzed. Corneal diameter was measured with a caliper in the operating room before cataract surgery. Under general anesthesia, a pediatric surgeon (YEZ) evaluated the iridocorneal angle with an indirect goniolens under the operating microscope. A gentle tilting of the goniolens was allowed to obtain a better view of the angle. Another experienced pediatric ophthalmologist (DDW) double checked the video recordings and graded the details of iridocorneal angle according to the Shaffer and Spaeth classification system and standard methods reported. The angle width was defined as follows: grade 0, a closed angle without visible angle structures; grade 1, a very narrow angle with Schwalbe's line visible only; grade 2, a moderately narrow angle with Schwalbe's line and trabecular meshwork visible; grade 3, an open angle with trabecular meshwork and scleral spur visible; grade 4, the widest angle with ciliary body band (CBB) visible. The iris insertion and pigmentation of the posterior trabecular meshwork were classified according to the Spaeth classification system. The iris insertion was defined as follows: A, anterior to Schwalbe's line; B, between Schwalbe's line and scleral spur; C, scleral spur visible; D, deep with ciliary body visible; E, extremely deep with > 1 mm ciliary body band. The pigmentation of trabecular meshwork was defined as follows: 0, no pigment; 1, minimal pigment; 2, mild pigment; 3, moderate pigment; 4, intense pigment. The number of iris process was defined as follows: 0, none; 1, minimal; 2, moderate; 3, marked. The width of CBB was graded according to the classification proposed by Tawara et al and defined as follows: invisible, the CBB could not be seen at all; very narrow, the CBB was narrower than the scleral spur; normal, the CBB was wider than the scleral spur. The normality of variables was tested using Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Continuous variables are presented as mean±standard deviation or median (interquartile range) based on the normality of variables, and categorical variables are presented as frequencies and percentages. One-way ANOVA or Kruskal-Wallis test was used for overall comparison, and Dunnett test or Kruskal-Wallis One-way ANOVA was used for paired-comparison of variables between groups where appropriate. Mann-Whitney test was used for further subgroup comparison. A P value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant. All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS version 21.0 (SPSS Inc, Chicago, Illinois, USA).
Congenital cataract is the main cause of form deprivation amblyopia in children. Current studies confirm that form deprivation amblyopia affects the retinal nerve fiber layer. However, there are different opinions about the effect of amblyopia on the optic nerve fiber thickness around the optic disc at home and abroad. Investigators have performed "cataract extraction with IOL implantation" on children with bilateral and unilateral congenital cataract. Investigators used OCT biometry to measure children's the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFLT) and macular thickness (CMT) before and after surgery. Investigators dynamically observed changes in RNFL and CMT to explore the retinal mechanism of form deprivation amblyopia and help guide the clinical correct understanding of postoperative follow-up time.
