Abstract
Objective To evaluate the management of the posterior capsule in pediatric cataract with intraocular lens(IOL) implantation.?Methods Posterior continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis with optic capture of the IOL was performed in 38 eyes of pediatric cataract.Mean follow-up time was 14±4.51 months.?Results 34 eyes achieved successful continuous curvilinear capsulohexis with optic capture of the IOL.18 eyes remained integrate anterior limiting membrane of the vitreous and 16 eyes were taken anterior virectomy.Slightly opacification in visual anxis of anterior vitreous limiting membrane happened in 2 eyes,and other 32 eyes obtained a clear visual anxis.?Conclusion Posterior continuous capsulorhexis with optic capture of the IOL,which reduced the interference to vitreous and retina,could be a feasible management to prevent the secondary opacification of the posterior capsule after surgery.
