ABSTRACT
This study shows management profile of 71 eyes of 52 children below the age of 10 years having congenital/developmental cataract. They were operated upon for cataract with intraocular lens implantation after establishing their possible aetiology. However, aetiology of cataract could be established only in 46.15% cases. Vitreous thrust (8.45%), iritis (15.49%) and posterior capsular opacification (25.35%) were the most common per-operative, immediate post-operative and late post-operative problems encountered respectively. After one year of follow up 52.11% eyes regained visual acuity better than 6/24 after full correction and amblyopia therapy.
