Multifocal vs Monofocal IOL in Congenital Cataract Surgery
- Conditions
- Cataract Congenital
- Registration Number
- NCT04872829
- Lead Sponsor
- Bambino Gesù Hospital and Research Institute
- Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate long-term outcome after congenital cataract surgery comparing results achieved with multifocal and monofocal IOLs.
- Detailed Description
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.
