| Summary: |
Purpose: To assess
changes in axial length, corneal curvature in
pseudophakia in children.
Material and methods: 104 patients (123 eyes)
operated between January 1987 and December 1997 with
congenital or traumatic cataract. Serial measurements
were made of axial length and corneal curvature.
Results: The follow up time ranged from 2 to 10
years. The ranges of axial length changes were from 0,16
to 0,93 mm. Eyes in the first 6 years of life (roup I)
experienced more elongation than eyes in the older years
(group II and III). The corneal curvature changes ranged
from 0,02 to 0,05 mm. There was no significant
difference between preoperative and postoperative
corneal curvature.
Conclusions: The pattern of axial elongation and
corneal flattening was similar in the congenital and
traumatic cataract groups to that observed in normal
eyes. No significant retardation or acceleration of
axial growth was found in the eyes implanted with IOLs,
compared with normal eyes. |
