Abstract

Introduction: Cataract remains as a leading cause of visual impairment in children. Surgical intervention and post-operative refractive correction remain fundamental. This study aims to describe the refractive and visual outcome of pediatric cataract surgery in a tertiary eye center in Indonesia.   Methods: This retrospective study was conducted utilizing medical records of all congenital and developmental cataracts patients undergoing cataract extraction procedures with or without primary IOL implantation between January and December 2022. Exclusion criteria included patients who did not undergo visual acuity and objective refraction examination 1-month post-cataract surgery and those with incomplete medical records data.   Results: A total of 118 eyes from 65 patients was included in this study. Most patients had bilateral cataracts (93.80%) and operated at the median age of 18 (0.96-212.64) months. Post-operatively, there were 71 (60.19%) aphakic and 47 (39.81%) pseudophakic patients with a respective refractive status of +18.00 (12.00 – 21.13) D and +0.60 (±2.37) D. Prediction error (PE) and absolute prediction error (APE) were obtained within 1.00 D. Most aphakic patients had unquantifiable visual acuity both before (91.50%) and after (83%) surgery. Among pseudophakic patients, nine (19.16%) had visual acuity of ≥ 6/12 and seven (14.89%) had visual acuity of <6/12 - 6/18 post-operatively. No patients had visual acuity ≥ 6/12 and <6/12 - 6/18 before surgery.   Conclusion: Post-operative refractive status of both aphakic and pseudophakic patients were well within correctable range. There was an improvement of vision after surgery. Limited visual potential may be attributed to the presence of amblyopia.

Abstract

Introduction : Lentiglobus is a lens deformation characterized by spherical bulging of the lens surface. The weakness of the posterior capsule in the lentiglobus makes the surgery challenging. We present a case of bilateral posterior lentiglobus and its management. Case Illustration : A 5-year-old boy was presented with the chief complaint of gradually blurred vision since 1 year ago. Visual acuity were 0.1 and closed face finger counting in the right and left eyes, respectively. An ophthalmology examination revealed lens opacities with partially reabsorbed lens material and protrusion of the lens surface posteriorly in both eyes (figure 1). The patient was diagnosed with developmental cataracts of the membranous type and posterior lentiglobus in both eyes. The patient underwent a surgical intervention for cataract extraction with aspiration technique. A spontaneous posterior capsule rupture was found with a shape like a lentiglobus. An anterior vitrectomy was performed. An intraocular lens was implanted. At one month after surgery, the best corrected visual acuities were 0.5 in both eyes (figure 2). Discussion : Several difficulties can be encountered during pediatric cataract surgery with the posterior lentiglobus morphology because of the thin or ruptured capsule. Previous studies have found preoperative and intraoperative posterior capsule rupture in 25% and 3.13% of lentiglobus cases, respectively. Hydrodissection should be avoided due to the weakness of the posterior capsule. ConclusionAppropriate surgical techniques to anticipate posterior capsule defects in the lentiglobus are required to produce a favorable outcome.
