Corneal Endothelial Changes Following Pediatric Cataract Surgery With IOL Implantation

NCT01504607 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 106

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Cataract surgery is known to cause loss of corneal endothelial cells. In adults, it is reported that anywhere between 2 to 15% loss of corneal endothelial cell density occurs following cataract surgery. However, no data is available regarding endothelial changes after cataract surgery with IOL implantation in pediatric eyes.

The aim of this study is to prospectively observe changes in endothelial cell density, coefficient of variation and hexagonality following cataract surgery with IOL implantation in pediatric eyes.
