Effect of the Timing of Lens-removal Cataract Surgery on Postoperative Complications Rate Among Patients With Bilateral Congenital Cataracts
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Phacomulsification lens removal cataract surgery without Intraocular lens(IOL) implantation at the age of 3month of the patients, Phacomulsification lens removal cataract surgery without Intraocular lens(IOL) implantation at the age of 6 month of the patients, and 1 other intervention for Cataract. Completed, enrolled 61 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Congenital cataract is an important treatable cause of visual handicap in childhood throughout the world. Successful management of childhood cataract is dependent on individualized treatment strategies and rigorous postoperative supervision for adverse complication. In this trial, we aimed to compare the difference of postoperative outcome between surgical timing at age of 3 month and 6 month. Patients enrolled into the study will be followed for two year and will have study visits at 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 month, 6 month, 9 month, 12 month, 18month and 24month postoperatively.

The surgical timing of phacoemulsification is perform at the age of 3 month of the patients. During Phacoemulsification, viscoelastic materials and anterior lens capsule are used to protect corneal endothelial cells.
The surgical timing of phacoemulsification is perform at the age of 6 month of the patients. During Phacoemulsification, viscoelastic materials and anterior lens capsule are used to protect corneal endothelial cells.
All patients received subconjunctival dexamethasone (2 mg) during surgery, and all surgeries were performed under general anesthesia.
