| Summary: |
Purpose: To report
refractive changes after cataract surgery and
intraocular lens implantation in children.
Material and methods: 104 patients (123 eyes)
operated between January 1987 and December 1997 with
congenital or traumatic cataract. Refractive power in
the both operated and non operated eyes, were measured.
Results: The operated eyes tended to become
myopic. Children, who underwent surgery in the first 6
years of live had a greater myopic shift than older
children. The mean myopic shift ranged from -2.33 D to
-0.51 D in operated eyes and from -1.05 D to -0.49 D in
non operated eyes.
Conclusions: Pseudophakia in children is
predicted to result in a large quantity of myopic shift,
particularly in very young children. This natural myopic
shift is magnified by the optical effect of a high-power
IOL. |
