Incidence and Management of Glaucoma or Glaucoma Suspect in the First Year After Pediatric Lensectomy.

This study found that glaucoma or glaucoma suspect developed in a small number of eyes in the first year after lensectomy and may be associated with aphakia and younger age at lensectomy.

Visual Acuity and Ophthalmic Outcomes in the Year After Cataract Surgery Among Children Younger Than 13 Years.

Amblyopia was frequently observed during the first year after lensectomy in this cohort of children younger than 13 years.

Special Commentary: Reporting Clinical Endpoints in Studies of Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery.

The suggested MCID for the cumulative probability of success for MIGS combined with CE-IOL at 2 years is 65%.

Visual Acuity and Ophthalmic Outcomes 5 Years After Cataract Surgery Among Children Younger Than 13 Years.

In this cohort study, development of glaucoma or glaucoma suspect was common in children 5 years after lensectomy.

Incidence of Glaucoma-Related Adverse Events in the First 5 Years After Pediatric Lensectomy.

In this cohort study, glaucoma-related adverse events were common after cataract surgery in children; age less than 3 months at surgery was associated with elevated risk of the adverse events in aphakic eyes.

Complications Occurring Through 5 Years Following Primary Intraocular Lens Implantation for Pediatric Cataract.

In this cohort study, a frequent complication following pediatric lensectomy with primary IOL was surgery for VAO, which was associated with primary anterior vitrectomy not being performed but was not associated with age at surgery or IOL location.

Association of Mood Disorders, Substance Abuse, and Anxiety Disorders in Children and Teens With Serious Structural Eye Diseases.

We found associations between eye disease in children and teens and mental illness. Understanding these relationships may improve mental illness screening and treatment in the pediatric population.

Visual Outcomes and Complications After Lensectomy for Traumatic Cataract in Children.

Trauma was not a common cause of pediatric cataract requiring surgery.

Complications, Visual Acuity, and Refractive Error 3 Years after Secondary Intraocular Lens Implantation for Pediatric Aphakia.

Eyes with secondary IOL implantation have a risk of developing new GRAEs.

Outcomes and Complications 5 Years After Surgery for Pediatric Cataract Associated With Persistent Fetal Vasculature.

A wide range of visual outcomes for PFV cataract were observed with a 10% probability of achieving age-normal VA. There was an ongoing risk for the development of glaucoma-related adverse events in PFV eyes.

Visual Outcomes and Complications Over 5 Years Following Lensectomy for Childhood Traumatic Cataract.

In this cohort study, while only half of the study participants had a 5-year follow-up visit, achieving age-normal VA was uncommon among the cohort in whom a best-corrected VA was determined.

Effects of Age at Surgery and Laterality of Cataract on Visual Acuity 5 Years after Surgery in Infants Left Aphakic.

For bilateral surgery in the first year of life, 5-year VA did not differ by age at surgery.
