No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The study evaluates contrast sensitivity in older children following surgery for lamellar and posterior subcapsular cataracts. Often, pediatric surgeons tend to delay surgery in these children who present beyond the amblyogenic age group. These cataracts are often compatible with reasonable visual acuity and therefore some surgeons prefer to wait for surgery, whereas others tend to operate.

The study evaluates improvement in contrast sensitivity at different spatial frequencies following cataract surgery for lamellar and posterior subcapsular cataracts in older children.
