Intraocular lens tilt and decentration and optical quality after primary intraocular lens implantation in pediatric cataract patients.

ABSTRACT:

Purposes

To investigate the characteristics and associated factors of intraocular lens (IOL) tilt and decentration in pediatric cataract patients undergoing primary IOL implantation and to explore their impact on postoperative optical quality.

Methods

Children who underwent cataract extraction with posterior capsulotomy, primary anterior vitrectomy, and in-the-bag IOL implantation over 6 months were enrolled. Patient data and ocular biometric parameters were retrieved from electronic files. Retroillumination images were obtained to evaluate capsular outcomes. IOL tilt and decentration were assessed using the swept-source optical coherence tomography, and wavefront aberrations were measured with the OPD-Scan III.

Results

A total of 125 eyes from 125 patients with a mea
