Factors associated with progressive anisometropia after bilateral intraocular lens implantation in patients with pediatric cataract.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

To identify factors associated with progressive anisometropia after bilateral intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in patients with pediatric cataract.

Methods

Clinical and standardized questionnaire data were collected for Sixty-eight patients with pediatric cataract (136 eyes) who underwent bilateral IOL implantation and at least 1 year of follow-up. Univariate and multivariate linear regression models were used to identify factors associated with postoperative anisometropia.

Results

The median age at IOL implantation was 3.2 years (range: 1-12.4 years), and median follow-up time was 5.7 years (range: 1.1-14 years). At 1 month postoperatively and at the last follow-up, there were 19 (27%) and 31 (46%) cases of anisometropia ≥1 D, 9 (13%) and 15 (22%) cases
