Refractive change in pediatric pseudophakia: 6-year follow-up

Abstract: The mean rate of myopic shift decreased throughout childhood, and the range of shift among individuals narrowed as patient age increased. However, the ability to predict future myopic shift for a given individual remains difficult, especially in younger patients.

“…Further compounding this issue is the fact that these eyes are usually expected to change considerably in the postoperative years, resulting in significant refractive changes. [1][2][3] Several studies on children have shown larger errors in IOL formula predictions than that are found in adults. [4][5][6][7][8][9] Further, several authors have compared the accuracy of different IOL formulae designed for adult eyes in predicting early postoperative refractive error in eyes of infants and young children.…”

“…Os tipos, os tamanhos, os modelos e os materiais das lentes intra-oculares estão em evolução, não havendo, ainda, a lente intra-ocular ideal para crianças. Os avanços tecnológicos e a pesquisa em biocompatibilidade poderão trazer melhores resultados (6)(7)(8) . No estudo destes 29 pacientes foram avaliados os resultados refracionais em crianças em um centro universitário de treinamento e pesquisa.…”

“…Zum einen muss der besonders bei kleinen Kindem extrem hohen Nachstarrate Rechnung getragen werden [3][4][5][6], zum anderen muss das noch nicht abgeschlossene Wachstum der kindlichen Augen bei einer eventuellen Linsenimplantation berucksichtigt werden, da sonst mit einem starken myopen Shift zu rechnen ist [7][8][9][10][11]. Aus diesem Grund wird in der Regel bei Kindern unter 1,5-2 Jahren generell keine Kunstlinse implantiert and der postoperative Refraktionsausgleich erfolgt zunachst am besten mit einer Kontaktlinse oder Brille [1,[12][13][14][15], wahrend bei alteren Kindern immer mehr dazu ubergegangen wird primar eine Hinterkammerlinse zu implantieren [1,2,5,8,[16][17][18].…”

“…2. Klare optische Medien nach Pars-plana-Lensektomie Linsenentfernung ohne Implantation einer Kunstlinse durchgefiihrt wird, da sonst auf Grund der postoperativen Zunahme der Achsenlange spater mit dem Auftreten einer massiven Myopie zu rechnen ist [7,[9][10][11]21].…”
