Aim?To evaluate central macular thickness (CMT) following improved vision and stereoacuity in pediatric patients after medical intervention. Method?We enrolled children having refractive errors, squint, or cataract. Anterior and posterior segment examinations were done with stereoacuity evaluated. We subjected all eyes for Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and measured CMT. After appropriate treatment, stereoacuity and OCT were evaluated again after 3 months. Result?Here, we enrolled 229 children with mean age 10.6???4.5 and found significant improvement in vision and stereoacuity after treatment (p?0.05) in children with refractive errors, squint, and cataract. Conclusion?Appropriate treatment makes functional changes in terms of stereoacuity as well as structural changes in form of CMT in children with refractive errors, squint, and cataract.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
