lnfluence on long - term changes of refractive status in children after congenital cataract intraocular lens implantation / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

ABSTRACT

To discuss long-term changes of refractive status in children after congenital cataract intraocular lens ( lOL) implantation and analyze its related influence factors.METHODS: Seventy cases ( 110 eyes ) with congenital cataract from January 2013 to January 2014 in our hospital were selected, according to the age of patients, they were divided into group A (0. 05 );The differences had statistical significances of the corneal curvature of group A after surgery and 3mo after operation (P0. 05);the corneal curvature 3mo after operation of group A was significantly higher than that of groups B and C (P0. 05 ); There were no statistical significances on axial length after operation in groups A, B, and C (P>0. 05);Ocular axial length difference of group A 3mo after surgery was significantly higher than that of groups B and C ( P 0. 05). Refractive status of three groups after operation showed myopia moving trend, refractive change rate and refractive diopter of group A after operation was significantly higher than that of group B, group C, the difference was statistically significant (P<0. 05). CONCLUSlON: After congenital cataract extraction combined with lOL implantation, patients present myopia refractive state trend. Performance of children below 2 years old is significant. The main factor of myopia is axial growth.
