Schwarzenbacher L, Wassermann L, Rezar-Dreindl S, Reiter GS, Schmidt-Erfurth U, Stifter E. An Analysis of Ocular Biometrics: A Comprehensive Retrospective Study in a Large Cohort of Pediatric Cataract Patients. J Clin Med 2024; 13:4810. [PMID: 39200952 PMCID: PMC11355302 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13164810] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2024] [Revised: 08/12/2024] [Accepted: 08/14/2024] [Indexed: 09/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Objectives: This study aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of ocular biometric parameters in pediatric patients with cataracts to optimize surgical outcomes. By evaluating various biometric data, we seek to enhance the decision-making process for intraocular lens (IOL) placement, particularly with advanced technologies like femtosecond lasers. Methods: This retrospective comparative study included pediatric patients with cataracts who underwent ocular biometric measurements and cataract extraction with anterior vitrectomy at the Medical University of Vienna between January 2019 and December 2021. Parameters measured included corneal diameter (CD), axial length (AL), corneal thickness (CT) and flat and steep keratometry (Kf and Ks). The study explored the correlations between these parameters and IOL placement. Results: A total of 136 eyes from 68 pediatric patients were included in the study. Significant positive correlations were found between corneal diameter, age and AL. The mean CD was 11.4 mm, mean AL was 19.5 mm, CT was 581.2 ± 51.8 µm, Kf was 7.76 ± 0.55 mm and Ks 7.41 ± 0.59 mm, respectively. Older pediatric patients with larger corneal diameters and longer ALs were more likely to receive in-the-bag IOL implantation. Conversely, younger patients often required alternative IOL placements or remained aphakic. Our data indicated that over 95% of the study population and all patients aged one year and older had a corneal diameter of 10 mm or larger. Conclusions: Detailed ocular biometric analysis is crucial for optimizing both surgical outcomes and postoperative care in pediatric cataract patients. The positive correlations between CD, age and AL underline the importance of individualized surgical planning tailored to each patient's unique anatomical features. Additionally, our findings suggest that the use of a femtosecond laser is both feasible and safe for pediatric patients aged one year and older, potentially offering enhanced surgical precision and improved outcomes.

Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol 2024:10.1007/s00417-024-06488-9. [PMID: 38613688 DOI: 10.1007/s00417-024-06488-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/11/2023] [Revised: 03/05/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/15/2024] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To report the prevalence data for total corneal astigmatism (TCA) in cataract patients. METHODS The authors retrospectively collected and analyzed the preoperative biometric data of the patients who underwent cataract surgery in the Department of Ophthalmology, Peking University Third Hospital, from January 2019 to May 2023. RESULTS The mean age of the 10817 patients was 71 ± 10 years; the male/female ratio was 4653/6164. The mean TCA obtained by the IOLMaster 700 (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG, Jena, Germany), the Abulafia-Koch (AK) formula, and the Barrett toric calculator was 1.11 ± 0.81 diopter (D), 1.13 ± 0.75 D, and 1.12 ± 0.74 D respectively, which was significantly greater than the mean standard keratometric (K) astigmatism (0.99 ± 0.75 D) obtained by IOLMaster 700. Against-the-rule (ATR) astigmatism was dominant in all the TCA measurements, and its proportion increased with age. TCA measurements by different methods exhibit high variability, with a total of 1574 (8.9%) data sets from 1016 (9.4%) patients showing a difference larger than 0.5 D in at least one pair of TCA measurements. CONCLUSION The use of TCA rather than K astigmatism significantly influenced the choice of intraocular lenses (IOLs) as more patients would be candidates for toric IOLs. It was essential to carefully compare and select TCA obtained with multiple methods for optimal postoperative visual quality.

Front Med (Lausanne) 2023; 9:1093276. [PMID: 36714118 PMCID: PMC9874092 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2022.1093276] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Accepted: 12/28/2022] [Indexed: 01/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose To investigate the impact of the pre-operative axial length (AL) on myopic shift (MS) 3 years after primary intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in congenital/developmental cataract patients. Methods A retrospective study of patients who underwent congenital/developmental cataract surgery and primary IOL implantation at age 2-3 years at EENT Hospital was conducted. All patients were followed up regularly for at least 3 years after surgery. Refractive outcomes, including spherical equivalent (SE) and MS, were collected at each follow-up. Results Forty eyes from 40 patients were included. The mean age at surgery was 2.56 ± 0.57 years old, and the mean follow-up time was 3.05 ± 0.22 years. Patients were divided into two groups: Group 1 included 20 patients with longer pre-operative ALs (≥22 mm), and Group 2 included 20 patients with average pre-operative ALs (<22 mm). By the last follow-up, the MS was 2.13 (0.38, 2.63) D in Group 1 and 3.88 (2.85, 5.72) D in Group 2. The post-operative MS in Group 2 was statistically greater than that in Group 1 at 3 years after surgery (P < 0.001). Conclusion In congenital/developmental cataract patients who underwent cataract extraction and primary IOL implantation at age 2-3 years, eyes with longer pre-operative ALs had a slower MS than those with average pre-operative ALs 3 years after surgery. This finding could have implications for the target refraction decision in congenital/developmental cataract surgery.

Abstract
Purpose To analyze the results of ocular refraction at the age of 7 years in children after congenital cataract surgery with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. Methods A study of ocular biometric data of 143 eyes who underwent lens aspiration with IOL implantation in unilateral (23 eyes) and bilateral (60 eyes) congenital cataracts was performed. All children were divided into groups according to the age categories at the time of surgery: Group A (0-12 months) - 43 eyes; Group B (12-36 months) - 45 eyes; and Group C (older than 36 months) - 55 eyes. An empirical reduction of the implanted IOL power was performed: an undercorrection of 20% in children aged 0 to 36 months and 10% less in children aged 36 to 60 months. Results By age 7 years, the mean elongation ± standard deviation (SD) in Group A was 3.93 ± 1.64 mm, 2.13 ± 0.94 mm in Group B, and 0.95 ± 0.76 mm in Group C (18.7%, 9.5%, and 4.1% of the baseline axial length, respectively). There was no significant difference in axial elongation between unilateral and bilateral congenital cataracts (P = 0.32). The mean absolute refraction error (MAE) at last examination was 3.99 ± 2.12 diopter (D), 2.46 ± 1.48 D, and 1.59 ± 1.31 D in Groups A, B, and C, respectively. In infants younger than 7 months of age, by age 7 years, the mean elongation ± SD was 3.27 ± 2.86 mm (25.5%) and MAE was 3.44 ± 2.1 D. The prevalence of preoperative corneal astigmatism of 1.0 D or more was 48.95%, 2.0 D or more was 27.27%, and 3.0 D or more was 5.6%. There was no significant difference in preoperative corneal astigmatism between unilateral (1.62 ± 0.77 D) and bilateral (1.78 ± 0.90 D) congenital cataracts (P = 0.56, 95% confidence interval = -0.50-0.28). Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) more than 20/40 was in 53.49%, 55.55%, and 74.54% in Groups A, B, and C, respectively. Conclusions Although IOL power was calculated in accordance with children's age, at the age of 7 years, there was a different degree of ametropia because of the biometric changes of the growing eye, and a higher rate of ametropia was observed more in the younger age group than in the elder age groups.

[PMID: 36939791 PMCID: PMC9590497 DOI: 10.1007/s43657-021-00040-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2021] [Revised: 12/15/2021] [Accepted: 12/17/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
The ocular biometry characteristics are clinically significant for children with unilateral congenital cataracts, but there is a lack of data analysis concerning the preoperative measurements. The axial length (AL), mean keratometry (Km), corneal astigmatism (CA), and the anterior chamber depth (ACD) from both eyes before cataract surgery were obtained from 205 patients (410 eyes, 3-15 years of age) with unilateral congenital cataracts. In the congenital cataract eyes, shorter AL (22.44 ± 1.52 mm vs. 22.57 ± 1.04 mm, p = 0.036) and higher CA (- 1.89 ± 0.91 D vs. - 1.24 ± 0.67 D, p < 0.001) were found, and no significant difference was found in the Km and the ACD measurements compared to the contralateral normal eyes. Females had shorter AL and shallower ACD compared to males. However, the Km and CA in the females were significantly larger than that in males. Shorter AL, larger Km, higher CA, and shallower ACD were also found in females who had a binocular axial difference (the value obtained by subtraction of the contralateral normal eye from the congenital cataract eye) that less than zero. The preoperative ocular biometry of shorter AL, larger Km, higher CA, and shallower ACD should be considered in females with unilateral congenital cataracts. The age and the binocular axial differences had a statistically significant correlation (r = -0.192, p = 0.006). Therefore, changes in the binocular axial differences associated with aging may enhance the guidelines for intraocular lens selection and the management of congenital cataracts.

Abstract
Reliable validated methods are necessary to verify the performance of diagnosis and therapy-assisted models in clinical practice. However, some validated results have research bias and may not reflect the results of real-world application. In addition, the conduct of clinical trials has executive risks for the indeterminate effectiveness of models and it is challenging to finish validated clinical trials of rare diseases. Real world data (RWD) can probably solve this problem. In our study, we collected RWD from 251 patients with a rare disease, childhood cataract (CC) and conducted a retrospective study to validate the CC surgical decision model. The consistency of the real surgical type and recommended surgical type was 94.16%. In the cataract extraction (CE) group, the model recommended the same surgical type for 84.48% of eyes, but the model advised conducting cataract extraction and primary intraocular lens implantation (CE + IOL) surgery in 15.52% of eyes, which was different from the real-world choices. In the CE + IOL group, the model recommended the same surgical type for 100% of eyes. The real-recommended matched rates were 94.22% in the eyes of bilateral patients and 90.38% in the eyes of unilateral patients. Our study is the first to apply RWD to complete a retrospective study evaluating a clinical model, and the results indicate the availability and feasibility of applying RWD in model validation and serve guidance for intelligent model evaluation for rare diseases.

Efficacy of Toric Intraocular Lens and Prevention of Axis Misalignment by Optic Capture in Pediatric Cataract Surgery. J Cataract Refract Surg 2021; 47:1417-1422. [PMID: 33797870 DOI: 10.1097/j.jcrs.0000000000000643] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2021] [Accepted: 03/07/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the outcomes of intraocular lens (IOL) implantation using toric (T)-IOL and non-toric (N)-IOL in pediatric cataract patients with astigmatism, and to examine the effect of optic capture (OC) on the axis misalignment (AM) of the T-IOLs. SETTING Department of Ophthalmology, Kindai University Hospital, Osaka, Japan. DESIGN Interventional, comparative case study. METHODS Consecutive pediatric patients implanted with T-IOLs or N-IOLs were retrospectively reviewed. In the T-IOL group, the preoperative and postoperative corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) and AM were compared in patients with and without OC. RESULTS The T-IOL group included 14 eyes of 11 patients, while the N-IOL group included 22 eyes of 15 patients. One year after surgery, the mean ocular cylinder (1.38 ± 0.80 D) was significantly smaller than the average corneal cylinder (3.33 ± 1.24 D) in the T-IOL group (P = .00012, Wilcoxon signed-rank test). The mean preoperative and 1-year postoperative CDVA (logMAR) were 0.57/0.003 (T-IOL) and 0.71/0.09 (N-IOL), respectively. The AM at 1 week and 1 year after surgery was 2.6° ± 3.7° and 4.4° ± 3.1° for the OC group, and 13.3° ± 8.8° and 18.5° ± 14.8°, for the non-OC group, respectively. The AM was significantly smaller in the OC group than that in non-OC group (P = .009, Mann-Whitney U test) at postoperative 1 week. CONCLUSION T-IOL implantation is effective in correcting astigmatism in pediatric cataract patients with astigmatism, and the OC technique is likely to achieve lower AM of the T-IOL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate the distribution of corneal astigmatism, aberration, and biometric parameters in Chinese congenital cataract (CC) /developmental cataract patients before cataract surgery. METHODS We evaluated eyes of CC /developmental cataract patients scheduled for cataract surgery from January 2016 to September 2019. Astigmatism, aberrations, and biometric parameters were measured with the Pentacam Scheimpflug imaging device (Pentacam HR, Oculus). Cataract was diagnosed and classified by slit-lamp examination after full mydriasis. RESULTS We evaluated 538 eyes in 356 patients. The mean values of anterior corneal astigmatism (ACA), posterior corneal astigmatism (PCA), and total corneal astigmatism (TCA) were determined as 1.98 ± 1.06 D (range 0.0‒4.8 D), 0.49 ± 0.26 D (range 0.0‒1.9 D), and 2.09 ± 1.19 D (range 0.2‒8.8 D), respectively. ACA and TCA ≥ 1.25 D was present in 379 eyes (70.3%) and 392 eyes (72.8%), respectively. PCA between 0.25 D and 0.75 D was found in 380 eyes (70.6%). There was a statistically significant positive linear correlation between lower-order aberrations root mean square values (LOA RMS) and corneal astigmatism (CA). Furthermore, in terms of distribution of central cornea thickness, anterior chamber depth, ACA, PCA, and TCA in different types of cataracts, ACA was highest in patients with zonular cataracts. Finally, we found anterior corneal measurements may overestimate WTR astigmatism, underestimate ATR astigmatism, and underestimate oblique astigmatism, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Most CC /developmental cataract patients had moderate to high astigmatism and ACA accounted for the largest proportion in the zonular group. This can provide a basis for planning of CC/developmental cataract surgery by ophthalmologists in clinical practice.

Abstract
PRéCIS:: The overall incidence of postoperative suspected glaucoma and glaucoma after congenital cataract surgery is low; however, the identification of the associated risk factors helps to monitor susceptible individuals and to provide real-time surveillance and timely intervention. PURPOSE Pediatric patients who have undergone surgery for congenital or infantile cataracts have a risk of developing suspected glaucoma and glaucoma, but the current evidence does not address our understanding of the incidence and associated risk factors of suspected glaucoma/glaucoma for application in clinical standard care. Therefore, this study investigated the incidence of and risk factors for suspected glaucoma/glaucoma in patients who have undergone surgery for congenital/infantile cataracts. METHODS This study used a prospective cohort of 241 eyes from 241 patients who were 10 years of age or younger and who had undergone congenital/infantile cataract surgeries and were recruited from January 2011 to December 2016 at the Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center. Pediatric patients who underwent cataract surgery were classified into 2 groups according to intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. The patients' baseline characteristics and the incidence and risk factors for suspected glaucoma/glaucoma were assessed. RESULTS The incidence of suspected glaucoma after cataract surgery was 10.70% [26 of 241 eyes; 95% confidence interval (CI), 6.88%-14.70%]. The rate of suspected glaucoma developing into glaucoma was 26.92% (7 of 26 eyes; 95% CI, 9.87%-43.97%), and the incidence of glaucoma was 2.90% (7 of 241 eyes; 95% CI, 0.79%-5.03%). Our study revealed that the incidence of suspected glaucoma/glaucoma in patients who did not receive IOL implantation was 13.91% (21 of 151 eyes; 95% CI, 8.39%-19.42%), and the incidence in patients who received IOL implantation was 5.56% (5 of 90 eyes; 95% CI, 8.23%-10.28%). The preoperative central corneal thickness (hazard ratio, 1.003; 95% CI, 1.001 to 1.004; P=0.004) and a family history of congenital cataracts (hazard ratio, 2.314; 95% CI, 1.004-5.331; P=0.049) were significant risk factors in patients without IOL implantation. Patient age at the time of cataract surgery was not a statistically significant risk factor for the development of suspected glaucoma/glaucoma in patients without IOL implantation. CONCLUSIONS Identification of the incidence of and risk factors for suspected glaucoma/glaucoma may help clinicians monitor susceptible individuals and provide timely surveillance and interventions in a clinical setting. Age at the time of cataract surgery was not a risk factor for suspected glaucoma/glaucoma in patients without IOL implantation, and this may allow the timing window for pediatric cataract surgery to be expanded and support new insights into the optimal timing of surgery for standard care.

Abstract
Purpose To evaluate the anterior segment biometry characteristics in congenital cataract patients before undergoing surgery in a tertiary eye care centre. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the charts of congenital cataract patients aged less than 15 years who had undergone the congenital cataract surgery from Jan-Dec, 2015. 451 eyes of 351 patients were reviewed. The eyes were examined using an autorefract-keratometer, applanation A-scan and parameters like keratometry, axial length, corneal astigmatism were noted. Results The mean age at the surgery was 92.4 ± 4.13 months (range 6 months to 15 years). The ratio of boys to girls was 2.34:1. The mean axial length was 21.94 ± 1.94 mm. Girls had shorter axial length than boys (21.53 mm vs 22.11 mm, p = 0.01). The axial length in the cataractous eyes in bilateral cases was significantly smaller than that in the unilateral cases (21.46 mm vs 22.55 mm, p < 0.0001).The mean keratometry was 44.12 ± 2.6 D. Girls had larger mean keratometry value than boys (44.71 vs 43.88, p = 0.0032). Keratometry values were higher in cataractous eyes in bilateral cases than in the unilateral cases (44.61 D vs 43.51 D, p < 0.0001). The mean corneal astigmatism was 1.49 ± 1.13 D. The prevalence of the corneal astigmatism of 2.0 D or more was 25.5%. The with-the-rule astigmatism was the most frequent type (62.53%). Girls had higher mean astigmatism than boys (p = 0.0122). The mean corneal astigmatism was higher in the cataractous eyes in bilateral cases than in the unilateral cases (p = 0.0094). Conclusions The axial length, mean keratometry and corneal astigmatism in congenital cataract patients varied with age, gender, and laterality. The data on biometry characteristics of Nepalese pediatric patients provided in the present study are of clinical significance and hence greatly enhance the guidelines for treatment decisions, IOL power calculations and management of congenital cataract patients.

Correlations of Corneal Spherical Aberration with Astigmatism and Axial Length in Cataract Patients. J Ophthalmol 2019; 2019:4101256. [PMID: 31583126 PMCID: PMC6754902 DOI: 10.1155/2019/4101256] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2019] [Accepted: 08/03/2019] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose To clarify the distribution of corneal spherical aberrations (SAs) in cataract patients with different corneal astigmatism and axial length. Setting Department of Ophthalmology and Vision Science of the Eye and ENT Hospital of Fudan University, Shanghai, China. Design Retrospective case series. Methods The axial length, corneal SAs, and other corneal biometrics were collected in cataract patients with Pentacam HR and IOLMaster 500. The statistical analysis of the corneal SAs was based on the stratification of axial length and anterior corneal astigmatism. Results In total, 6747 eyes of 6747 patients were recruited, with 2416 eyes (58.17 ± 16.81 years old) in the astigmatism group (anterior corneal astigmatism ≥1 D) and others (61.82 ± 12.64 years old) in the control group. In patients with astigmatism <2 D, the total and anterior SAs decreased as the axial length increased (P < 0.001). The total corneal SAs of patients with astigmatism of 2-3 D stabilized at around 0.29 μm, whereas those of patients with anterior corneal astigmatism ≥3 D tended to be variable. Age and anterior corneal astigmatism had positive and negative effects, respectively, on SA in the regression model. Conclusions Axial length has a negative effect on the anterior and total corneal SAs, which stabled around 0.33 μm and 0.30 μm in patients with axial length of ≥26 mm, respectively. Individualized SA adjustments are essential for patients undergoing aspheric toric IOL implantation with preoperative anterior corneal astigmatism of 1-2 D or ≥3 D. Toric IOLs with a negative SA of −0.20 μm are recommended for patients with anterior corneal astigmatism of 2-3 D if no customized therapy is warranted.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the behavioral and psychological disorders and the prevalence of parent ratings of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms among children with bilateral congenital cataracts (CCs). METHODS This cross-sectional study investigated children with bilateral CC aged 3-8y (CC group) using Conners' Parent Rating Scale-48 (CPRS-48) from July to December 2016. The abnormal rates of psychological symptoms in CC children and normal vision (NV) children were compared using the Chi-square test. The scores of CC children were compared with those of NV children and the Chinese urban norm using the independent samples t-test and one-sample t-test, respectively. RESULTS A total of 262 valid questionnaires were collected. The ratio of CC children to NV children was 119:143. The overall rate of psychological symptoms in CC children was 2.28 times higher than that in NV children (46.22% vs 20.28%, Pearson's χ 2=20.062; P<0.001). CC children showed higher scores for conduct problems, learning problems, impulsiveness/hyperactivity, anxiety, and hyperactivity index than NV children and the Chinese urban norm, particularly between the ages of 3 and 5y. Furthermore, male children aged between 6 and 8y showed a higher impulsive/hyperactive score than females of the same age (t=6.083, P<0.001). CONCLUSION Children with bilateral CCs have a higher rate of ADHD symptoms than children with NV. This study provides clinical evidence that screening for psychological symptoms and particularly for ADHD symptoms in children with bilateral CC are recommended for an early diagnosis and timely treatment.

Practical pattern of surgical timing of childhood cataract in China: A cross-sectional database study. Int J Surg 2019; 62:56-61. [PMID: 30673594 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijsu.2019.01.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2018] [Revised: 12/27/2018] [Accepted: 01/13/2019] [Indexed: 10/27/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The ideal surgical timings for cataract extraction (CE) and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation are vital for vision reconstruction in patients with childhood cataract (CC), yet they still remain controversial. We aimed to analyze the real-world practical pattern of surgical timings of CE and IOL implantations among a large number of Chinese CC patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS This cross-sectional, database study included CC inpatients from the *** over a 10-year period (from January 2005 to December 2014). Binary logistic regression and multiple linear regression analyses were performed to identify the factors affecting the timings of CE and IOL implantation. RESULTS In the primary surgical stage, the mean ages of patients performed with CE (n = 839) and CE + IOL implantation (n = 1582) were 9.99 ± 18.21 months (5th-95th percentiles: 2-21) and 82.99 ± 52.99 months (5th-95th percentiles: 24-194), respectively. Surgical age, laterality, and axial length were identified as three factors (area under the curve [AUC]: 0.96, 95% CI: 0.94-0.97; Youden index: 0.86) affecting surgical procedure selection (CE or CE + IOL implantation) in the primary surgical stage. The time intervals between primary CE and secondary IOL implantation in bilateral (n = 311) and unilateral (n = 90) aphakia were 38.25 ± 16.84 months (5th-95th percentiles: 18-72) and 25.87 ± 10.56 months (5th-95th percentiles: 11-48), with significant difference (p < 0.001). Age at primary CE and laterality were identified as two factors affecting the time interval between primary CE and secondary IOL implantation in aphakic patients. CONCLUSIONS The timings of CE and IOL implantation mainly varied with the age and laterality. This study may provide data-based clinical experience for ophthalmologists regarding CE and IOL implantation of CC in China and other countries with similar socioeconomic conditions.

Abstract
PURPOSE We investigate visual function impairment and ocular structure in patients with unilateral posterior lens opacity, a type of congenital cataract (CC) in our novel CC category system. METHODS We studied patients aged 3 to 15 years who were diagnosed with unilateral posterior CC. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and visual evoked potentials (VEP) were examined. Corneal astigmatism (CA), mean keratometry, central corneal thickness, anterior chamber depth (ACD), and axial length were measured by Pentacam and IOL-Master. Variations between two eyes were compared by paired t-tests. RESULTS Among the 25 patients involved, BCVAs (logMAR) of cataractous and contralateral healthy eyes were 0.8 ± 0.4 (range, 0.1-1.7) and 0.1 ± 0.1 (range, -0.1 to 0.4). Compared to contralateral healthy eyes, larger CA (1.8 ± 1.2 vs. 0.9 ± 0.4 diopters [D], P = 0.002) and deeper ACD (3.7 ± 0.3 vs. 3.5 ± 0.4 mm, P = 0.009) were found in cataractous eyes. No significant positive or negative linear relationship was found between BCVA and parameters of VEP. Peak time of P100 of pattern VEP-60' in cataractous eyes was longer than that in contralateral healthy eyes (114.9 ± 18.8 vs. 105.0 ± 12.4 ms, P = 0.013). Amplitudes of P100 of patterns VEP-60' and -15' in cataractous eyes were smaller than those in contralateral healthy eyes (PVEP-60', 15.2 ± 5.3 vs. 19.9 ± 10.4 μV, P = 0.023; PVEP-15', 10.4 ± 7.0 vs. 22.1 ± 11.9 μV, P = 0.012). CONCLUSIONS Impaired visual function and ocular structure were detected in patients with posterior lens opacities. TRANSLATIONAL RELEVANCE This study provides evidence-based clinical recommendations for unilateral posterior CC patients with controversial treatment options.

Abstract
Background To evaluate the refractive and visual outcomes of Transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (TransPRK) in the treatment of low to moderate myopic astigmatism. Methods This retrospective study enrolled a total of 47 eyes that had undergone Transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy. Preoperative cylinder diopters ranged from − 0.75D to − 2.25D (mean − 1.11 ± 0.40D), and the sphere was between − 1.50D to − 5.75D. Visual outcomes and vector analysis of astigmatism that included error ratio (ER), correction ratio (CR), error of magnitude (EM) and error of angle (EA) were evaluated. Results At 6 months after TransPRK, all eyes had an uncorrected distance visual acuity of 20/20 or better, no eyes lost ≥2 lines of corrected distant visual acuity (CDVA), and 93.6% had residual refractive cylinder within ±0.50D of intended correction. On vector analysis, the mean correction ratio for refractive cylinder was 1.03 ± 0.30. The mean error magnitude was − 0.04 ± 0.36. The mean error of angle was 0.44° ± 7.42°and 80.9% of eyes had axis shift within ±10°. The absolute astigmatic error of magnitude was statistically significantly correlated with the intended cylinder correction (r = 0.48, P < 0.01). Conclusions TransPRK showed safe, effective and predictable results in the correction of low to moderate astigmatism and myopia.

Abstract
AIM To determine the repeatability of Ophtha Top topography and assess the consistency with intraocular lens (IOL)-Master and LenstarLS900 (Lenstar) in measuring corneal parameters among cataract patients. METHODS Totally 125 eyes were enrolled. Corneas were successively measured with Ophtha Top, IOL-Master and Lenstar at least three times. The flattest meridian power (Kf), the steepest meridian power (Ks), mean power (Km), J0 and J45 were recorded. Intra-class correlation coefficients (ICCs), the coefficient of variance (COV), within subject standard deviation (Sw), and test-retest repeatability (2.77Sw) were adopted to determine the repeatability. The 95% limit of agreement (95%LOA) and Bland-Altman plots were used to assess comparability. RESULTS Repeatability of Ophtha Top topography for measuring corneal parameters showed the ICCs were all above 0.93, 2.77Sw was lower than 0.31, and the COV of the Kf and Ks was lower than 0.25. The keratometric readings with Ophtha Top topography were flatter than with the IOL-Master and Lenstar devices, while the Pearson correlation coefficients were over 0.97. The J0 and J45 with Ophtha Top topography were smaller compared with Lenstar and IOL-Master, while was comparable between Lenstar and IOL-Master. CONCLUSION Ophtha Top topography shows excellent repeatability for measuring corneal parameters. However, differences between the Ophtha TOP topography and Lenstar, IOL-Master both in cornea curvature and the astigmatism should be noted clinically.

Abstract
Background To investigate the distribution of the height, weight and body mass index (BMI) of children with congenital cataracts (CC) before surgical treatment. Methods This prospective study included children with CC ≤14 years of age presenting at the Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center from Jan. 2013 to Aug. 2016. The height, weight, and BMI measurements of all participating children were obtained and compared with the World Health Organization Child Growth Reference (WHO Reference), matched by age and gender. The presence of a family history of CC or complicated systemic diseases as well as parental education levels and family income were also recorded. Results In total, 595 children with CC were included. The mean age was 52.75 ± 33.99 months, and 34.29% (204/595) of them were unilateral cases. Among all of the children, 6.72% (40/595) of cases were complicated by systemic diseases. More than 1/5 (21.01%, 125/595) of the children had a family history of CC and exhibited bilateral involvement. Less than 1/4 (23.2) of the mothers were highly educated, and more than half of the families had a family income below the city average. Height, weight, and BMI measurements of most children with CC were within the normal ranges (±95% CI of the WHO Reference). Compared to the WHO Reference, both girls and boys aged 2–5 years revealed shorter heights, and the girls aged 5–14 years exhibited a shorter height, lower body weight and lower BMI. The heights of the children with CC and systemic diseases were also shorter than the WHO Reference. The children with CC who had a family history of disease had shorter heights and lower BMIs than children with CC but no family history, and the measurements of both groups were lower than the WHO Reference values. Conclusions The height, weight and BMI of most of the children with CC in this study were within the normal ranges of the WHO Reference. However, the children with CC and concomitant systemic diseases and those with a family history of CC had shorter heights and lower BMIs. This information aids in our understanding of the physical development of children with CC.
