Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the ESCRS online calculator for intraocular lens (IOL) calculation in children undergoing lens extraction and primary IOL implantation. SETTING Department of Ophthalmology, Goethe-University Frankfurt, Frankfurt am Main, Germany. DESIGN Retrospective, consecutive case series. METHODS Eyes that received phacoemulsification and IOL implantation (Acrysof SN60AT) due to congenital or juvenile cataract were included. We compared the mean prediction error (MPE), mean and median absolute prediction error (MAE, MedAE) of formulas provided by the recently introduced online calculator provided by the ESCRS with the SRK/T formula, as well as the number of eyes within ±0.5 diopters (D), ±1.0 D, ±2.0 D of target refraction. Postoperative spherical equivalent was measured by retinoscopy 4 to 12 weeks postoperatively. RESULTS 60 eyes from 47 patients with a mean age of 6.5 ± 3.2 years met the inclusion criteria. Mean axial length was 22.27 ± 1.19 mm. Mean preoperative spherical equivalent (SE) was -0.25 ± 3.78 D, and mean postoperative SE was 0.69 ± 1.53 D. The MedAE was lowest in the SRK/T formula (0.56 D, ± 1.03) performed significantly better ( P = .037) than Hoffer QST and Kane, followed by BUII (0.64 D, ± 0.92), Pearl DGS (0.65 D, ± 0.94), EVO (0.69 D, ± 0.94), Hoffer QST (0.75 D, ± 0.99), and Kane (0.78 D, ± 0.99). All of those were significantly above zero ( P < .001). 41 eyes received an intraoperative optic capture (68%). When excluding eyes that did not receive intraoperative optic capture (n = 19; 32%), the MedAE was shown to be lower. CONCLUSIONS Using modern IOL calculation formulas provided by the ESCRS calculator provides good refractive predictability and compares for most of the formulas with the results with SRK/T. In addition, the formulas seem to anticipate the postoperative refraction better for eyes that receive a posterior optic capture.

[PMID: 38915745 PMCID: PMC11195671 DOI: 10.2147/opth.s468294] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2024] [Accepted: 06/13/2024] [Indexed: 06/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose To compare the accuracy of modern intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation formulas with that of older formulas, such as SRK/T and Hoffer Q, in pediatric cataract surgery. Methods This retrospective study included 100 eyes of 100 children who underwent routine cataract surgery with primary IOL implantation in a bag. This study used four IOLMaster 700 integrated formulas: SRK/T, Hoffer Q, Haigis, and Barrett Universal II (BUII). In addition, the following formulas were used: EVO 2.0, Hill RBF 3.0, Hoffer QST, Kane, and PEARL DGS, which are available online. Results There was a statistically significant difference between SRK/T and most other formulas, except for Hoffer Q, Hoffer QST, and BUII (p < 0.05). SRK/T yielded the lowest median absolute error (MedAE) of 0.63 D. This was followed by the BUII (0.66 D), Hoffer Q, and Hoffer QST (0.68 D). SRK/T also yielded the highest percentage of cases within ± 0.50 D (43% of the cases). For patients aged 2 to 5 years, SRK/T formula yielded statistically significantly better results than all other included formulas (p < 0.05) with MedAE = 0.44 D, 58.33% and 87.50% of the cases were within ± 0.50 D and ± 1.0 D of intended refraction, respectively. Conclusion The SRK/T formula showed the best IOL power calculation results in pediatric cataract surgery, followed by BUII, Hoffer Q, and Hoffer QST. In children aged 2-5 years, the SRK/T formula outperformed all other formulas, followed by the BUII and Hoffer QST formulas. In children older than 5 years, there was no statistically significant difference between the different formulas (p > 0.05); Hoffer Q and SRK/T showed slightly better MedAE in this age group (5-10 years).

Association Between Preoperative Ocular Parameters and Myopic Shift in Children Undergoing Primary Intraocular Lens Implantation. Transl Vis Sci Technol 2024; 13:24. [PMID: 38809530 PMCID: PMC11146040 DOI: 10.1167/tvst.13.5.24] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2023] [Accepted: 03/30/2024] [Indexed: 05/30/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose To evaluate the association between preoperative ocular parameters and myopic shift following primary intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in pediatric cataracts. Methods Eyes from pediatric patients undergoing bilateral cataract surgery with primary IOL implantation were included. Eyes were grouped by age at surgery and subdivided into three axial length (AL) subgroups and three keratometry subgroups. Mixed-effects linear regression was utilized to assess the trend in myopic shift among subgroups. Multivariable analysis was performed to determine factors associated with myopic shift. Results A total of 222 eyes were included. The median age at surgery was 4.36 years (interquartile range [IQR], 3.16-6.00 years) and the median follow-up was 4.18 years (IQR, 3.48-4.64 years). As preoperative AL increased, a decreased trend was observed in myopic shift and rate of myopic shift (P = 0.008 and P = 0.003, respectively, in the 4 to <6 years old group; P = 0.002 and P < 0.001, respectively, in the ≥6 years old group). Greater myopic shift and rate of myopic shift were associated with younger age at surgery (P = 0.008 and P = 0.008, respectively). Both myopic shift and rate of myopic shift were negatively associated with AL. Conclusions Age at surgery and preoperative AL were associated with myopic shift in pediatric cataracts following primary IOL implantation. Adjusting the target refraction based on preoperative AL could potentially improve patients' long-term refractive outcome. Translational Relevance This study may help to guide the selection of postoperative target refraction according to age at surgery and preoperative ocular parameters for pediatric cataracts.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the postoperative longitudinal refractive changes in children younger than 8 years with ectopia lentis and Marfan syndrome (MFS). SETTING Zhongshan ophthalmic center, Guangzhou, China. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. METHODS Medical data of patients diagnosed with ectopia lentis and MFS that underwent surgery younger than 8 years were collected. Refractive errors and ocular biometric parameters were collected preoperatively and at each follow-up visit. Patients were stratified into groups according to age at surgery, and only the eye operated on first was selected. Multivariate analysis was performed to determine the association between refractive shift and potential risk factors. RESULTS In total, 54 eyes of 54 patients were enrolled. The median age at surgery was 6.21 years (interquartile range [IQR], 5.25 to 6.85), and the median follow-up was 2.0 years (IQR, 1.2 to 2.8 years). At age 8 years, patients demonstrated a median myopic shift ranged from -1.75 diopters (D) (IQR, -2.75 to -1.00 D) for the 4-year-old group to -0.13 D (IQR, -0.50 to -0.06 D) for the 7-year-old group. Multivariate analysis showed that greater myopic shift was associated with younger age at surgery ( P = .004), male sex ( P = .026), and shorter preoperative axis length ( P = .005). CONCLUSIONS A tendency toward increasing postoperative myopic was demonstrated in children with ectopia lentis and MFS, with the greatest myopic shift in the younger age groups. If the goal is to reach emmetropia by age 8 years, the immediate postoperative hypermetropic targets should be 1.75 D for age 4 years, 1 D for age 5 years, 0.5 D for age 6 years, and 0 to 0.25 D for age 7 years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS To establish normative curves for axial length and corneal curvature in the first decade of life. METHODS This is a cross-sectional study from a single institution in the United States. Children from 0- to 10-years of age with no underlying ocular pathology were prospectively enrolled to obtain ultrasound biometry and hand-held keratometry while under anaesthesia for an unrelated procedure. Older cooperative children had optical biometry obtained in-office. Logarithmic quantile regression models were used to determine the change in axial length and average keratometry as a function of age. RESULTS Single-eye measurements from 100 children were included. 75% of children were White and 49% female. Median axial length ranged from 20.6 mm (IQR, 20.2 to 21.1 mm) at age one year to 23.1 mm (IQR, 22.5 to 23.8 mm) at age ten years. Median average keratometry ranged from 44.1 D (IQR, 42.6 to 45.4 D) at age one year to 43.5 (IQR, 42.2 to 44.0 D) at age ten years. As age increased, there was a significant increase in axial length (0.74 mm per doubling of age; 95% CI, 0.62 to 0.82 mm), and a non-significant trend towards lower average keratometry (-0.21 D per doubling of age; 95% CI, -0.62 to 0.08 D). CONCLUSIONS We provide a set of normative charts for axial length and corneal curvature which may facilitate the identification of eyes outside the normal range and assist in the management of ocular conditions such as glaucoma or cataract.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare baseline biometry measurements in eyes with pediatric cataract versus age-matched controls METHODS: This is a cross-sectional study conducted at a tertiary care hospital that included two arms-prospective arm to collect data from normal eyes and retrospective arm for eyes with pediatric cataract. In the prospective arm, biometry measurements were obtained in healthy children aged 0 to 10 years. Children under the age of four had measurements under anesthesia for an unrelated procedure, while older children had in-office measurements using optical biometry. For comparison, biometric data was collected in children with pediatric cataract through record review. One eye of each patient was randomly selected. Axial length (AL) and keratometry (K) were compared by age and laterality. The medians were compared using Wilcoxon rank-sum tests and variances using Levene's test. RESULTS There were 100 eyes in each arm, 10 eyes in each age bin of 1-year interval. There was more variability in baseline biometry in eyes with pediatric cataract and a trend for longer AL and steeper K in cataract eyes than aged-matched controls. The difference in AL means was significant in age group 2-4 years, and variances were significant across all age groups (p=0.018). Unilateral cataracts (n=49) showed a trend toward greater variability in biometry than bilateral cataracts, but this did not reach statistical significance. CONCLUSION Baseline biometry measures are more variable in eyes with pediatric cataract compared to age-matched controls with a trend toward longer AL and steeper K.

Abstract
Glaucoma following cataract surgery (GFCS) remains a serious postoperative complication of pediatric cataract surgery. Various risk factors, including age at lensectomy, intraocular lens implantation, posterior capsule status, associated ocular/systemic anomaly, additional intraocular surgery, and a family history of congenital cataract and GFCS, have been reported. However, the optimal surgical approach remains unclear. This review evaluates the diagnostic criteria, classification, risk factors, mechanism, and surgical management, especially the efficacy of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery, in GFCS, and aims to propose an optimal clinical management strategy for GFCS. The results of our review indicate that ab interno trabeculotomy (goniotomy) may be the most appropriate first-line treatment for GFCS.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the relative contribution of intraocular lens (IOL) calculation accuracy and ocular growth variability to the long-term refractive error predicted following pediatric cataract surgery. METHODS Pseudophakic eyes of children enrolled in the Infant Aphakia Treatment Study (IATS) were included in this study. Initial absolute prediction error (APE) and 10-year APE were calculated using the initial biometry, IOL parameters, postoperative refractions, and mean rate of refractive growth. The cohort was divided into children with a low-initial APE (≤1.0 D) and a high-initial APE ( >1.0 D). The 10-year APE was compared between the two groups using the Mann-Whitney U test. Linear regression was used to estimate the variability in prediction error explained by the initial IOL calculation accuracy. RESULTS Forty-two children with IOL placement in infancy were included. Seventeen eyes had a low initial APE, and 25 eyes had a high initial APE. There was no significant difference in APE 10 years following surgery between individuals with a low initial APE (median, 2.67 D; IQR, 1.61-4.12 D) and a high initial APE (median, 3.45 D; IQR, 1.64-5.10 D) (P = 0.7). Initial prediction error could explain 12% of the variability in the prediction error 10 years following surgery. CONCLUSIONS IOL calculation accuracy contributed minimally to the refractive error predicted 10 years after cataract surgery in the setting of high variability in the rate of refractive growth.
