Surgical Interventions for Bilateral Congenital Cataracts: A Clear Vision for Children

Congenital cataracts, clouding of the lens present at birth, can severely impact a child's vision and development. This study explores the surgical interventions commonly used to treat bilateral congenital cataracts – lensectomy and lens aspiration. The authors highlight the unique challenges of treating cataracts in children, including the risk of inflammation, amblyopia (lazy eye), and posterior capsule opacification. The study provides valuable insights into the surgical management of this condition, emphasizing the need for timely intervention and close monitoring to ensure optimal visual outcomes for children.
