Abstract

Aim: To evaluate the intraoperative complications & post- operative outcome of early intervention of traumatic cataract in children due to open globe injuries.  Materials and Methods: 40 cases of unilateral cataract having repair of open globe injuries previously were included in this prospective study. Primary repair of corneal injuries were done with 10-0 Nylon under general anesthesia. Secondary intervention with IOL implantation were done within 4 weeks of primary repair. Age range was 4-14 years and minimum follow up 3 months. Intraoperative and postoperative complications and final best-corrected visual outcome were recorded.  Results: All cases had pre-existing anterior capsular tear and flocculent lens matter in anterior chamber. IOL were implanted in the bag in 90% cases. Intra-operatively 4 cases revealed pre-existing posterior capsular hole and IOL were implanted in the sulcus. Synechiolysis was done in 3 cases. There was no iatrogenic PC rent. Postoperatively no cases showed synechiae formation, pupil capture and IOL displacement. Visual acuity was 6/9 to 6/60 in all cases and intraocular pressures were digitally normal. No optic atrophy and RD were noticed at last follow up. Most common causes of decreased vision were corneal scar and astigmatism.  Conclusion: Early cataract surgery with IOL implantation after repair of open globe injuries carries favorable intraoperative and postoperative outcome.
