Vitrophage in management of congenital cataracts

Abstract: We have used the vitrophage for combined lensectomy and vitrectomy in six eyes with congenital cataracts. No intraoperative complications were encountered. One week after operation four of the six eyes had clear corneas, and all eyes showed a bright red reflex. With follow-up ranging from 18 to 21 months all eyes had clear corneas and a view of the posterior pole consistent with 20/20 vision.

“…We have previously described the use of this instrument for cataracts in adults and children, for anterior segment reconstruction (Peyman and Sanders, 1975;Peyman et al, 1977;Peyman et al, 1978a, b) and for removal of dislocated lenses through the pars plana route (Peyman and Sanders, 1975). In this report we describe various techniques we have used to deal with dislocated lenses of different types.…”
