We applied parametric statistics to arrive at the intergroup P = 0.58 comparing the final CCT at 4 weeks. However, a percentage change of CCT in each group with comparative statistics should have been mentioned to arrive at the abovementioned conclusion.

Presence of these comorbidities may alter the presentation and management of lens conditions. In this chapter we will be discussing two such comorbidities: childhood glaucomas and anterior segment dysgenesis. Although childhood glaucoma and anterior segment dysgenesis are separate entities, they have been clubbed together since anterior segment dysgenesis is associated with glaucoma in significant number of cases and few cases of presumed primary congenital glaucoma may actually be glaucomas secondary to anterior segment dysgenesis.

All these eyes were proven refractory to maximal medical therapy for extended periods of time, in some cases more than 6 weeks. As the surgery was performed during the active stage, the outcome was not favorable functionally. Clinical cure was obtained, however, by therapeutic penetrating keratoplasty in all but 27 of these eyes. Of unsuccessful cases, 16 could be saved with additional medical therapy, two led to phthisis bulbi, and nine required repeat therapeutic penetrating keratoplasty. Complications encountered included disturbances in intraocular dynamics such as extrusion of the lens and vitreous during surgery, secondary rise of intraocular pressure leading to damage of the optic nerve, loss of the eye due to above factors, and reinfection. The anatomical success achieved was 97% with graft clarity of 2+ or more in 39% of eyes. Useful ...

Design: Ambispective observational study. Participants: Cases with posterior polar cataracts. Methods: Eyes with diagnosed posterior polar cataracts were imaged on anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT). A detailed assessment was performed to note the morphology of the posterior opacity, posterior capsule, and the common patterns to indicate their abnormality. In addition, generalized observation of the morphology was also performed about intraoperative surgical experiences. Results: A total of 101 eyes were included. Mean patient age was 52.85 ± 10.72 years. The posterior capsule integrity was identified as intact in 91 eyes and abnormal/deficient in 10 eyes (9 had intraoperative defective capsule). These deficient/abnormal morphologies were classified into 3 categories: conical (n = 2), moth-eaten (n = 5), and (3) ectatic (n = 3). Similarly, dependi...

Untreated cataracts in children lead to tremendous social, economical, and emotional burden to the child, family, and society. Blindness related to pediatric cataract can be treated with early identification and appropriate management. Most cases are diagnosed on routine screening whereas some may be diagnosed after the parents have noticed leukocoria or strabismus. Etiology of pediatric cataract is varied and diagnosis of specific etiology aids in prognostication and effective management. Pediatric cataract surgery has evolved over years, and with improving knowledge of myopic shift and axial length growth, outcomes of these patients have become more predictable. Favorable outcomes depend not only on effective surgery, but also on meticulous postoperative care and visual rehabilitation. Hence, it is the combined effort of parents, surgeons, anesthesiologists, pediatricians, and optometrists that can make all the difference.
